Earth Day, Thursday April 22, 2021

On the occasion of Earth Day, Thursday April 22, 2021, the CNRS is offering a selection of research to “fix” the world. Indeed, if scientists deliver diagnoses on environmental crises, they also try to bring solutions which, without pretending to save the world, can contribute to mitigate the effects and help us to adapt to the upheavals in progress. Here is a fascinating dossier from the CNRS, to be read here.

Measuring the active dopant concentration at nanoscale !

Doping, a fundamental property of semiconductor devices can be measured at nanoscale thanks to long term developments made by IPVF-C2N researchers. In a twin papers published in Phys. Rev. Applied they report how to calibrate cathodeluminescence (CL) measurements to analyze p-type and n-type GaAs thin films over a wide range of carrier concentrations (2×1017 to 1×1019 cm-3). Then, they applied this calibration to analyze the doping concentration profiles in GaAs NWs. High-resolution maps of the

IPVF at the Tandem PV Workshop – April 13th – 16th 2021

Photovoltaics (PV) is rapidly becoming one of the most important energy sources for a clean and widespread energy supply. In 2019 alone, 120GWp of PV capacity was installed globally. Every country has now realized that PV is not only the best solution ecologically, but also increasingly economically, with an average levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) of around 3ct/kWh, and in some cases as little as 1-2ct/kWh. End 2020 IEA declared PV the cheapest energy source
