Better protection for perovskite solar cells against environmental influences
A team from the University of Stuttgart and international researchers have succeeded in making perovskite solar cells more efficient and more resistant to environmental influences. This is another important step towards the application of a technology that holds great promise for photovoltaics.
Better understanding of molecular self-organization
Chemists from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and physicists from the University of Stuttgart are working together to develop new models to describe electrochemically controlled molecular self-organization. The German-American project is funded by the MIT Global Seed Fund.
More efficient than Carnot: quantum mechanics trumps the second law of thermodynamics
Two physicists from the University of Stuttgart have proven that Carnot's principle, a central law of thermodynamics, does not apply to objects of the size of atoms whose physical properties are linked (so-called correlated objects). This finding could, for example, advance the development of tiny, energy-efficient quantum motors. The scientific journal Science Advances published the derivation.( DOI: 10.1126/sciadv.adw8462 )
