[Aspuru-Guzik group list] ANNOUNCEMENT: Alan J. Heeger Seminar - October 20

by rtavilla＠rle.mit.edu

Center for Excitonics Seminar Series Announcement The Center for Excitonics is an Energy Frontier Research Center funded by the U.S. Department of Energy, Office of Science and Office of Basic Energy Sciences The Center for Excitonics (http://www.rle.mit.edu/excitonics) invites you to join us at the next seminar of the Fall 2009 series. Please forward this information on to others who might be interested in attending this seminar. Title: "Plastic" Solar Cells: Self-Assembly of Bulk Heterojunction Nano-Materials by Spontaneous Phase Separation Presenter: Professor Alan J. Heeger Organization: University of California, Santa Barbara Department of Chemistry Date: October 20, 2009 Time: 3:00 - 4:00pm Place: 36-428 Refreshments: Yes URL: http://www.rle.mit.edu/excitonics/heeger-102009.html abstract Solar cells --- Power from the Sun --- can provide and must provide --- a significant contribution to our future energy needs. The challenge is clear; we must create the scientific foundation and the technology to enable fabrication of high efficiency solar cells at low cost. I will describe the discovery of ultrafast photoinduced electron transfer as the scientific foundation for the creation of a technology for low cost “plastic” solar cells. This initial charge separation occurs at a time scale two orders of magnitude faster than the first step in photo-synthesis in green plants. Charge collection at the electrodes is accomplished through self-assembly of bulk heterojunction (BHJ) nano-materials by spontaneous phase separation. Recent results include the achievement of 6% power conversion efficiency and the demonstration of quantum efficiencies approaching 100%: Each photon absorbed leads to a (positive and negative) pair of mobile charge carriers, and all the photo-generated charge carriers are collected at the electrodes. Higher efficiencies will come from improved harvesting of the photons from the solar spectrum using new semiconducting polymers designed and synthesized for use in “plastic” solar cells. We see a clear technology pathway to high efficiency “plastic” solar cells with lifetimes sufficient for a wide range of applications including portable electronics, semi-transparent solar cells for windows in homes and buildings, and rooftop installation. I will discuss lifetime issues and progress toward manufacturing plastic solar cells by printing/coating technology. I will demonstrate that the dream of low cost plastic solar cells is becoming reality. bio Widely known for his pioneering research in and the co-founding of the field of semiconducting and metallic polymers, Professor Heeger is also the recipient of numerous awards, including the Nobel Prize in Chemistry (2000), the Oliver E. Buckley Prize for Condensed Matter Physics, the Balzan Prize for the Science of New Materials, the Eni Italgas Prize for Energy and the Environment, the President’s Medal for Distinguished Achievement from the University of Pennsylvania, the Chancellor’s Medal from the University of California, Santa Barbara, and honorary doctorates from more than a dozen universities in the United States, Europe and Asia. He is a member of the National Academy of Science (USA), the National Academy of Engineering (USA) and a foreign member of the Korean Academy of Science. Prof. Heeger founded UNIAX Corporation in 1990; UNIAX was acquired by DuPont in 2000. Prof. Heeger is Chairman and Co-founder of CBrite Inc. in Santa Barbara. Barbara.

by Dmitrij Rappoport

Dear Group, Following up on the discussion at today's group meeting, I'd like to suggest a short meeting for all group members who are running large computational jobs on Odyssey. The goal of this meeting would be to discuss the current cluster issues and to brainstorm about guidelines which would help us to avoid this kind of problems in the future. The proposed meeting date is this Friday, October 16, at 2pm. All those interested, please let me know if you can make it or what an alternative time would be.

[Aspuru-Guzik group list] Reminder: Today at 5 pm -- Biodiversity Ecology and Global Change lecture

by Center for the Environment

Ecological studies are the bridge that link biodiversity and global change issues. Please join us at the first Fall 2009 lecture in the Harvard University Center for the Environment and Bank of America series on: Biodiversity, Ecology, and Global Change "Climate Change and How We Got the Fauna We Have Today" Mark McPeek David T. McLaughlin Distinguished Professor of Biological Sciences, Dartmouth College TODAY 5:00 pm Harvard University Sherman Fairchild Lecture Hall 7 Divinity Ave Cambridge, MA Current projections of climate suggest grave problems for humankind going forward. However, past climate events may have played a significant role in shaping patterns of biodiversity that we have today. In this presentation, Mark McPeek will review evidence for the various roles that past climate events have played in the adaptation and diversification of North American damselflies, and suggest ways in which our concepts of ecology and evolution may need to be altered to account for these effects. McPeek is an ecologist and evolutionary biologist, using both empirical and theoretical approaches to understand the ecological processes that determine the distributions and abundances of organisms today, and that shaped the adaptation and diversification of these organisms in the past. In combined studies he integrates ideas, data and approaches from a number of disciplines, including population and community ecology, population genetics, molecular systematics, comparative biology, macroevolution and paleontology. The Biodiversity, Ecology, and Global Change lecture series is sponsored by the Harvard University Center for the Environment with generous support from Bank of America. This lecture is free and open to the public. Reception to follow.

by Patrick Rebentrost

Dear All, Here are a couple of papers that might be of interest to some of you. On a more general note: I don't know exactly who of you is interested and I feel a little bad about spamming "aspuru-list". I propose creating "aspuru-list-papers" for this purpose. Of course, we can use Mendeley/Connotea/etc., but why not employ a 30+ year old technology (electronic mail) that works just fine?
