The Chemistry Behind Inorganic Solar Cells
On August 25, 2022 in All, Energy Harvesting, General, Industrial, Power by Liam Critchley
Liam Critchley
Inorganic solar cells are the most common and efficient solar cells and rely on many different aspects of chemistry to function. Without chemistry, it would not be possible to create the internal current generation mechanisms that enable solar cells to harness sunlight, and here we explain how.

The Underlying Chemistry of Piezo Materials
On February 6, 2019 in All, Energy Harvesting, Power, Sensors by Liam Critchley
Liam Critchley
The electrical properties of both piezoelectric and piezoresistive materials change when subjected to mechanical deformation. Here, we show how and why these electrical changes are due to changes within the crystal structure at the atomic level and the chemistry involved with these changes.

Understanding the Chemistry of Semiconductor Junctions
On September 21, 2018 in All, Energy Harvesting, Industrial, Power by Liam Critchley
Liam Critchley
Chemistry plays a major part in why semiconductor materials behave the way they do, and why current can flow through a p-n semiconducting junction. Here, we discuss what effect chemistry has on these junctions, including some of the mechanistic variations that exist in electronics today.
