1. 1. Morphological study of PS/PMMA-matrix on glass, related to vapour pressure, mass-fraction, and size

   University essay from Karlstads universitet/Institutionen för ingenjörs- och kemivetenskaper (from 2013)

   Author : Gustav Larsson; [2023]
   Keywords : organic solar cells; polymer; morphology; film; AFM;

   Abstract : The objective of this study is to observe how changing amount or ratio between dried mixes of poly-methyl-methacrylate and poly-styrene change the surface appearance, and how the results might inform future design of Organic photovoltaic cells, whom are based on polymer mixtures and heavenly dependent on the arrangement of polymers. An atomic force microscope was used on glass surfaces coated in a poly-methyl-methacrylate/poly-styrene matrix and dried from either dichloromethane or ethyl-acetate to determine surface appearance.

4. 3. Synthesis of Organo-Iron(II) Complexes Including N-Heterocyclic Carbene Ligation as Solar Cell Material.

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Centrum för analys och syntes

   Author : Salim Charkas; [2023]
   Keywords : Dye-sensitized solar cell; Transition metal complex; Synthesis iron; N-heterocyclic carbene NHC ; Organic chemistry; Chemistry;

   Abstract : The push-pull design has been shown to increase DSC performance through the introduction of electron-withdrawing groups and electron-donating groups, usually on opposite far ends of the sensitizer. The scope of this thesis was to synthesize several pre-N-heterocyclic carbene ligand analogs that are inspired by the push-pull design in an attempt to investigate their susceptibility to Fe(II) complexation.

   Abstract : This thesis explores the integration of hydrogen and battery energy storage systems as a means to enhance the management of wind and solar power in the pursuit of a greener grid. The objective of the study is to identify the potential benefits and challenges associated with hybrid energy storage systems (HESS) and their role in renewable energy integration. READ MORE

6. 5. Energy audit of a single-family house in a city in the middle of Sweden

   University essay from Högskolan i Gävle/Energisystem och byggnadsteknik

   Author : Daniela Valentina García Gimeno; [2023]
   Keywords : energy audit; building energy efficiency; building envelope; renewable sources; windows efficiency; insulation of houses in Sweden;

   Abstract : The world is currently submerged in two big problems: supply energy crisis and climate change. It is clear that society has to do its best to overcome these challenges, and one effective way to mitigate their effects is by conducting an energy audit, which helps to identify the weaknesses and strengths of the buildings, enabling improvements in their thermal efficiency.
