We used #sfGFP and #mCherry modified with alkoxysilane groups to sensitize electrodes for #DSSCs! The device efficiency jumped up to 0.45%. We also implemented graphene electrodes from our @Graphene_XT collaborator of the @STiBNite_H2020 network. 👉doi.org/10.1002/admt.2023019…

New paper with @AaltoUniversity! We designed ionic emitters with #AIE mechanism featuring easy ion polarizability to assist charge injection and reversible electrochemical behavior. This resulted in #LECs reaching 0.19 lm/W at ca. 50 cd/m². 👉 pubs.rsc.org/en/Content/Arti…
