Mib-solar center on the Inside front cover of Sustainable Energy & Fuels with DSSCs for indoor applications

Prof. Manfredi, deputy director of the Mib-solar centre, recently published a paper on DSSC solar cells using green electrolytes (Deep Eutectic Solvents, DES) that for the first time were also tested under ambient light, with an efficiency of 8% under 1200 lux, higher than the only example in the literature that instead uses water as a solvent. The article was selected as the Inside Front Cover of issue 3, 2024 of

The Mib-solar profilometer undergoing an international rescue operation, reported in Bnews

Dr Chiara Liliana Boldrini, the Milano-Bicocca solar energy research centre (Mib-solar) technician, reports a fine example of international scientific solidarity in an article on BNews, the blog of the University of Milano-Bicocca, published on March 21. Interviewed by Vito Bentivenga, Dr. Boldrini describes the successful adventure she underwent to make the profilometer used in the Research Centre work again after the failure of the PC that ran it. To achieve

Present and future of photovoltaic panels on BNews

Prof. Simona Binetti, director of the Milano-Bicocca Solar Energy Research Center (Mib-solar), interviewed on perovskites and innovative materials for photovoltaics on BNews, the blog of the University of Milano-Bicocca, published Feb. 20. Interviewed by Rossella Guido, Prof. Binetti discusses the advantages of perovskite solar cells, particularly useful in tandem cells with silicon modules or on a flexible substrate for vehicles integration, as well as those of thin-film cells such as
