Zero-excess solid-state lithium batteries

Bezanódové tuholátkové lítiové batérie

Duration: 1.7.2023 - 31.12.2026
Program: SRDA
Project leader: Dr. rer. nat. Šiffalovič Peter DrSc.
Annotation:The central hypothesis of ZERO project is that by real -time monitoring of Li deposition rate, wetting and/or alloying, and mechanical stress at the SSE/CC interface, we can optimize and tailor SSBs providing higher capacity and cycling lifetime. This can be achieved by controlling charge/discharge currents, appropriate alloy-forming interlayers, and managing internal stresses by external loads. The main aim of ZERO project is to develop optimal alloy-forming interlayers and charging strategies to achieve the high capacity and cycling lifetime of ZESSBs. This will be enabled and connected with the developing and/or updating methodologies that will facilitate experimental monitoring and a better conceptual understanding of the growth phenomena involved in the formation of the Li anode in ZESSBs. To this end, we will develop novel laboratory and synchrotron techniques to explore ZESSB-related phenomena under in operando conditions.

Nanoengineered Trojan hybrid for site-responsive phototherapy of recurrent glioblastomas

Fototerapia rekurentných glioblastómov s nádorovo špecifickým trójskym hybridom optimalizovaným na nano-úrovni

Duration: 1.9.2024 - 30.6.2028
Program: SRDA
Project leader: Mgr. Hvizdošová Annušová Adriana PhD.
Annotation:The NanoGlow project aims to develop i) functional “Trojan horse” hydrogels with embedded photothermal nanoparticle conjugates, ii) validated in vitro and iii) complemented with state-of-the-art structural and chemical mapping at the nanoscale. Photothermal, pH-responsive MoOx nanoparticles will be conjugated with tumor-homing RGD peptides and embedded in nontoxic, biodegradable poly-(2-oxazoline)- and bio-sourced Tulipalin A-based matrices. Near-field nanoscopy, Atomic Force Microscopy Force Spectroscopy, and Confocal Raman Microscopy of nanoconjugate-hydrogel superstructures and in vitro samples will characterize nanoscale related phenomena observable at the macroscale. NanoGlow’s unique nano-to-macro approach will provide a basis for the application of the proposed hybrid structures in the fight against complex and hard-to-treat glioblastomas.

Optimizing Perovskite Films for Highly Efficient and Stable Photovoltaics

Optimalizácia perovskitových vrstiev pre vysoko účinnú a stabilnú fotovoltiku

Duration: 1.7.2024 - 30.6.2029
Program: IMPULZ
Project leader: RNDr. Mrkývková Naďa PhD.
Annotation:The steadily increasing energy consumption calls for renewable technologies that could substitute environmentally detrimental and costly fossil fuels. These technologies must satisfy environmental, economic, and social feasibility criteria. Perovskite-based solar modules show the ability to meet these fundamental requirements. Recently, the power conversion efficiency (PCE) of a single-junction solar cell based on halide perovskite has reached 25.7 % , and the perovskite/silicon tandems over 33 % , greatly outperforming the silicon solar cells efficiencies. Further efficiency improvement is prevented by defects that cause non-radiative recombinations – either through trap-assisted recombination in the active layer or via carrier recombination at the perovskite/transport layer interfaces. This proposal focuses on the defects in halide perovskite and related phenomena that are critical in limiting performance in photovoltaic applications. Furthermore, it aims to develop effective passivation routes to achieve further performance advances. Its innovation potential lies in increasing the efficiency of future photovoltaic applications via addressed investigation of the non-radiative traps at the grain boundary surfaces and interfaces and their efficient passivation.
