In recent years, the quest for sustainable energy solutions has led to remarkable innovations in photovoltaic technology, particularly in the niche of indoor applications. One of the most significant advancements in this field has been made by G-Lyte, a French company co-founded by Franck Barath, which specializes in indoor photovoltaics. This technology promises to revolutionize the way we power our everyday devices, from smart home systems to small electronics, by harnessing ambient light more efficiently than ever before.Understanding Indoor PhotovoltaicsTraditionally, photovoltaic cells have been designed for outdoor use, where they can capture sunlight effectively. However, indoor environments present unique challenges, primarily due to the lower intensity of light available. Conventional indoor photovoltaics have struggled with efficiency, typically achieving only between 7% to 11% efficiency, which is insufficient for practical applications beyond powering simple devices like calculators. G-Lyte's innovative approach has broken these barriers, achieving efficiency rates of 25% to 28% and ensuring stability over a remarkable lifespan of more than 15 years.The Science Behind the InnovationThe journey to this breakthrough began in 2011 when G-Lyte embarked on extensive research to understand the degradation processes of indoor photovoltaic cells. By identifying the factors that lead to inefficiency and instability, the team developed proprietary solutions that not only enhance the performance of these cells but also ensure their reliability under various environmental conditions. This research culminated in two international patents, marking significant milestones in the evolution of indoor photovoltaic technology.What sets G-Lyte's product apart is its ability to operate efficiently under high lux conditions and elevated temperatures, up to 70°C. This resilience is crucial for indoor applications, where lighting and temperature can vary significantly. The technology's capacity to maintain performance in low-light conditions - operating effectively at as little as 20 lux, comparable to a clear night sky - further expands its potential use cases.Practical Applications and Market PotentialG-Lyte's indoor photovoltaic technology has vast implications. Its primary applications target the growing market of smart homes, smart buildings, and smart industries, where energy autonomy is increasingly in demand. By integrating these advanced photovoltaic cells into devices such as sensors, remote controls, keyboards, and electronic shelf labels (ESLs), manufacturers can significantly extend battery life or eliminate the need for batteries altogether.For instance, in a typical convenience store with around 20,000 ESLs, the challenge of changing batteries every two to five years can be daunting. By utilizing G-Lyte's technology, these devices could potentially become self-sustaining, reducing maintenance efforts and enhancing operational efficiency. Beyond retail, the technology holds promise for connected locks, beacons, and other smart devices requiring a reliable power source.The Future of Indoor PhotovoltaicsAs the demand for energy-efficient solutions continues to grow, G-Lyte's innovative indoor photovoltaic technology stands at the forefront of this transition. The integration of these cells into everyday products not only aligns with global sustainability goals but also addresses practical challenges faced by consumers and businesses alike.Conclusion: Indoor Photovoltaic Changing the Way We Power Small DevicesIn conclusion, the advancements in indoor photovoltaic technology developed by G-Lyte represent a significant leap forward in energy efficiency. By transforming the way we harness ambient light, this innovation paves the way for a future where our devices can operate autonomously, thereby reducing reliance on traditional power sources and contributing to a more sustainable world. As we look ahead, the potential applications of this technology will likely expand, further embedding renewable energy solutions into the fabric of our daily lives.Interview by Scott Ertz of F5 Live: Refreshing Technology.Sponsored by: Get $5 to protect your credit card information online with Privacy.

The CHIPS Act is now disbursing awards and signing deals. One recent grant that caught my eye was awarded to the New Zealand-American space company Rocket Lab. The grant of up to $23.9 million is for the modernization and expansion of the company's fab in New Mexico, which produces space-grade solar cells. I have not heard of Rocket Lab until recently ... though it seems like the folks in the stock-trading world certainly have. But the idea of "space grade" solar cells was interesting to me. So this video is a simple one. Solar cells. In Space. Nuff said.

Roadmap authors look to the future of photovoltaic technologies in this podcast

As discussed on this podcast for some time now, carbon 60, commonly known as C60, is part of The Mitochondrial Triad for its many mitochondrial-boosting properties; namely, its ability to mitigate oxidative stress. Today's guest, Chris Burres, is all too familiar with C60, as he is the co-founder of SES Research, which has been producing C60 for industrial purposes since the early '90s. Through some rather serendipitous events, including a 2012 study where SES Research supplied the C60 that ended up extending the lifespan of rats by 90%(!!), Chris and his company found themselves flung into the crazy biohacking and longevity communities that were yearning to have C60 for human consumption.In our conversation today, Chris details the mechanisms of how C60 works to improve mitochondrial function (most notably, the B.O.S.S. Theory) and why it could be a key molecule to help humans extend lifespan beyond our current expectations. He also outlines the unfortunate state of the C60 supplement space and how most supplements have a much lower concentration than they claim and that some even have ZERO C60 in their product at all! This is why he has trademarked the term ESS60, which delineates an ultra high purity C60 that is specifically made for human consumption; meaning, if you are purchasing a C60 supplement, then "ESS60" must be in the ingredients list. Otherwise, you can assume it is a subpar product.Chris covers other interesting topics, such as how C60 is produced, his perspective on longevity and how long he believes he can live and whether or not immortality is possible, testimonials around ESS60, the upper limit for ESS60 consumption and much more! If you found the information in today's episode with Chris particularly interesting and/or compelling, please share it with a family member, friend, colleague and/or anyone that you think could benefit and be illuminated by this knowledge.

Join us for this look into materials chemistry, developed under the guiding principles of sustainability and a systems approach.Dr. Zlatka Stoeva, Co-founder and Managing Director of DZP Technologies, discovered her love of chemistry out of boredom as a child. She then traveled to unknown lands to master her science and discover the value of mentors while doing amazing work on lithium-ion battery chemistry. A stint in the technology transfer office at Cambridge showed her how fundamental research can be translated into real-world solutions that can change lives, and this inspired her to start her own company.In providing CRO services and developing IP to help companies address market needs using unique materials, Stoeva and her colleagues approach problems with a systems mindset that is common in engineering, but not always chemistry. We hear about their work in “plastic electronics” that leverage biological materials and consider sustainability aspects while delivering results. We also hear about their exciting work using graphene materials to produce digitized materials that can code information about how they're made and their interactions with the environment.Check out this great episode that balances a wonderful personal story, amazing science, and great bits of advice to guide your science and career development!Related episodes:Season 5, Ep.1: Batteries unplugged: past, present and the electrifying futureSeason 4, Ep.4: Women in chemistry: learnings from one of the greatestSeason 4, Ep.2: The father of green chemistrySeason 3, Ep.9: Energy harvesting and self-sustainable greenhousesSeason 2, Ep.8: Sustainability as an entrepreneurial choiceSeason 2, Ep.3: Rethinking catalysisBonus content!Access bonus content curated by this episode's guest by visiting www.thermofisher.com/chemistry-podcast for links to recent publications, podcasts, books, videos and more.View the video of this episode on www.thermofisher.com/chemistry-podcast.A free thank you gift for our listeners!Request your free Bringing Chemistry to Life t-shirt on our episode website.Use code cHeMcas+ng in October and KemThrReDs in November.

In this podcast episode, MRS Bulletin's Laura Leay interviews Rasmus Neilsen from the Technical University of Denmark about his fabrication of a monolithic selenium/silicon tandem solar cell. The selenium forms the top cell of the tandem device, with silicon used as the bottom cell. Selenium-based single-junction solar cells have traditionally used fluorine-doped tin oxide. In this work indium-tin oxide was used as a transparent conductive layer that is easier to deposit and its use is more widespread. Neilsen and his research team controlled the thickness of the carrier-selective contacts in the silicon solar cell that protects the silicon layer from the processes used to deposit subsequent layers on top, thus enabling them to deposit the top cell directly onto the substrate. This work was published in a recent issue of PRX Energy.

Leslie is joined by Scott Paul, President of the Alliance for American Manufacturing (AAM), a partnership established by some of America's leading manufacturers and the United Steelworkers union. First, Scott breaks down today's move by President Biden to levy new tariffs on Chinese electric vehicles, semiconductors, batteries, solar cells, steel and aluminum. The tariffs on Chinese EVs will rise to 100%, quadrupling the current tariff of 25%. It's the latest bid by the Biden administration to keep China from undercutting U.S. companies and threatening U.S. manufacturing jobs, many of which are union jobs. Second, Leslie and Scott discuss yesterday's Substack piece by Elizabeth Pancotti at Roosevelt Forward, titled, "Why It's Good, Actually, That You Can't Buy the World's Cheapest Electric Vehicle." (Link--> https://rooseveltforward.substack.com/p/why-its-good-actually-that-you-cant) Next, Scott explains why what's happening at ports in Belgium should worry both American automakers and policymakers. Finally, Leslie and Scott explore how America is at a crossroads when it comes to trade policy. For over 16 years, Scott Paul and AAM have worked to make American manufacturing a top-of-mind issue for voters and our national leaders through effective advocacy, innovative research, and a savvy public relations strategy.

President Joe Biden on Tuesday unveiled steep tariff increases on an array of Chinese imports including electric vehicle batteries, computer chips, and medical products, in a bid to woo voters who give his economic policies low marks.Producer prices—the cost of goods and services paid by businesses—rose hotter than expected in April, adding to concerns that the U.S. economy could be in the middle of another inflation wave.U.S. and British officials warned on Tuesday of a growing cyber threat from China, with the White House cyber director saying Beijing was capable of causing havoc in cyberspace and a UK spy agency chief warning of an "epoch-defining" challenge.

AP correspondent Jennifer King reports the Chinese government is accusing the US of bullying as new tariffs are slapped on Chinese products.

Hosts Kerrin Jeromin and Taylor Mankle discuss recent stories from NREL:  The rapid adoption of zero-emission electric vehicles, alongside a transition to a clean electric grid and measures to manage travel demand growth, could lead to an 80% or more drop in transportation greenhouse gas emissions in the United States by 2050, according to researchers from the U.S. Department of Energy's NREL. Their study, published in the journal Nature Communications, involved over 2,000 simulations and identified the dynamic variable in reducing emissions as measures supporting the transition to zero-emission vehicles, emphasizing the importance of a multifaceted approach involving technology advancements, policy changes, and behavioral shifts. Researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy's NREL achieved a record-breaking efficiency of 27% for a gallium arsenide (GaAs) heterojunction solar cell, using dynamic hydride vapor phase epitaxy (D-HVPE). By optimizing the doping and bandgap of the emitter layer, the study provides a roadmap for enhancing the performance of solar cells, with potential applications beyond III-V materials, such as silicon, cadmium telluride, or perovskites. NREL researchers are utilizing artificial intelligence, specifically invertible neural network (INN) tools, to accelerate airfoil design for wind turbine blades, demonstrating a hundredfold speedup over current methods and achieving performance characteristics satisfaction, offering a potential breakthrough in optimizing airfoil shapes and streamlining the design process. The INN, by learning an invertible relationship between airfoil shapes and their properties, enables rapid exploration of design spaces, providing higher-fidelity insights into aerodynamics and structural properties without compromising tight design timelines. This episode was hosted by Kerrin Jeromin and Taylor Mankle, written and produced by Allison Montroy and Kaitlyn Stottler, and edited by Joe DelNero and Brittany Falch.

Critical minerals are non-fuel minerals or mineral materials essential to the economic or national security of the U.S. They have no viable substitutes yet face a high risk of supply chain disruption. Critical minerals are used for many different purposes, including the production of advanced electronics, weapons systems, manufacturing equipment, and cutting-edge medical devices. They are indispensable for the transition to low-carbon energy sources. Last year, the U.S. Secretary of the Interior, with the aid of the U.S. Geological Survey, published a list of 50 critical minerals. China dominates global critical mineral supply chains, accounting for approximately 60% of world-wide production and 85% of processing capacity. However, the U.S. and several European countries are taking steps to build out their own ability to mine, process, and manufacture critical minerals. To discuss the implications of China's role in critical mineral supply chains and the responses of the U.S. and its partners, host Bonnie Glaser is joined by Abigail Wulf, vice president and director of the Ambassador Alfred Hoffman Jr. Center for Critical Minerals Strategy at Securing America's Future Energy (SAFE), a non-profit advancing transformative transportation technology to enhance energy security. Time Stamps[01:51] Vulnerabilities and Risks of Overdependence [07:07] Development of a Domestic Mining Industry [12:42] Environmental Hazards of Processing Raw Minerals [18:30] Impact of Export Controls on Gallium and Germanium[22:53] Diversifying Sources of Rare Earth Imports[26:38] The Critical Raw Materials Act[29:58] The Mineral Security Partnership
