16.8 Monolithic all-perovskite triple-junction solar cells via a universal two-step solution processWang, J. (author), Zardetto, V. (author), Datta, K. (author), Zhang, D. (author), Wienk, M.M. (author), Janssen, R.A.J. (author)Perovskite semiconductors hold a unique promise in developing multijunction solar cells with high-efficiency and low-cost. Besides design constraints to reduce optical and electrical losses, integrating several very different perovskite absorber layers in a multijunction cell imposes a great processing challenge. Here, we report a versatile two...article 2020

Hofman, W.J. (author)Each manufacturer, supplier, and retailer has its own chain of collaborating stakeholders to meet their customer demands. Many perspectives can be taken like food safety, security, and sustainability, which may each lead to separate solutions that are not necessarily interoperable with each other. Data can only be shared within the context of...conference paper 2019

ten Brink, H. (author), Henzing, B. (author), Otjes, R. (author), Weijers, E. (author)The visibility on New Year's nights in the Netherlands is low during stagnant weather. This is due to the scattering and absorption of light by the aerosol-smoke from the fireworks. We made an assessment of the responsible aerosol-species. The investigation took place during the New Year's night of 2009. Measurements were made at a regional site...article 2018
