Full textOggigiorno, ed in misura crescente nei prossimi decenni, la disponibilità e facilità di accesso alle fonti energetiche rappresenta un fattore determinante per lo sviluppo mondiale ed il progresso di popoli e nazioni. Parallelamente a ciò, il progressivo sfruttamento delle risorse naturali, unito all’aumento dell’impatto delle attività antropiche sull’ecosistema terrestre e sul clima, impongono a comunità ed istituzioni, ad ogni livello, un ripensamento e l’attuazione di differenti strategie per garantire lo sviluppo sociale ed economico attraverso il ricorso ad approcci basati sul concetto di sviluppo sostenibile. In questo contesto, le fonti energetiche rinnovabili, i.e. solare, eolica, idroelettrica, da biomasse, geotermica, ecc., assumono certamente un ruolo determinante per coniugare progresso ed attenzione alle tematiche ambientali. La presente Tesi di Dottorato si incentra su queste tematiche approfondendo strategie, metodi ed approcci innovativi per l’efficace progettazione, controllo e gestione di impianti e tecnologie per le energie rinnovabili. Nel dettaglio, lo scenario d’insieme delle fonti energetiche è analizzato con logica di sistema ed orientamento all’ottimizzazione globale proponendo studi e modelli che evidenzino l’importanza ed il potenziale delle principali risorse, rinnovabili e non, come elementi di un grande mosaico, i.e. il mix energetico globale, nel quale le potenzialità economiche ed ambientali di ogni risorsa sono enfatizzate minimizzando, nel contempo, gli impatti negativi e le rispettive debolezze. Tra le possibili fonti rinnovabili, la fonte solare assume primaria importanza per disponibilità, diffusione ed impatto potenziale. La presente Tesi di Dottorato analizza, in dettaglio, questa risorsa energetica presentando modelli, metodi ed impianti sviluppati per accrescere l’incidenza di questa risorsa nel mix energetico. Gli elementi ed aspetti fondamentali, insieme ad approcci innovativi per la stima delle componenti della radiazione solare, sono presentati nell’elaborato. Successivamente, l’innovativo settore della concentrazione solare è analizzato, in dettaglio, anche attraverso l’illustrazione delle scelte progettuali, lo sviluppo e la campagna sperimentale preliminare di un concentratore solare fotovoltaico/termico (PV/T) a lenti di Fresnel ed inseguimento biassiale. Nel seguito, vengono approfondite possibili strategie per l’inseguimento biassiale ed algoritmi di controllo, implementati in una piattaforma semi-automatizzata sviluppata in ambiente di programmazione grafica LabViewTM. L’ultima sezione propone, infine, un approccio per la progettazione di un simulatore solare, un dispositivo spesso adottato nei test di ottica solare. In conclusione, la presente Tesi di Dottorato, descrive una molteplicità di strategie orientate alla diffusione delle energie rinnovabili, con attenzione alle performance ed all’impatto potenziale che esse hanno verso il raggiungimento dell’obiettivo ambizioso di un sostenibile living planet.

The separation of chromophore absorption and excitonic processes, such as singlet exciton fission and photoluminescence, offers several advantages to the design of organic solar cells and luminescent solar concentrators (LSCs) for the end goal of achieving a lower cost solar energy generation. This thesis explores three new device architectures to overcome limited solar absorption in singlet-exciton-fission based solar cells and neodymium based LSCs. The process of singlet exciton fission is de-coupled from photon absorption, exciton diffusion, and charge transport in singlet-exciton-fission based solar cells by inserting a singlet fission material at the donor-acceptor interface of an organic solar cell. Singlet excitons generated in the singlet exciton donor are transferred to the singlet fission material through near field energy transfer. In this device structure, the singlet donor can be chosen for high photon absorption, exciton diffusion, and charge transport, and the singlet fission sensitizer can be selected for high singlet fission efficiency. We demonstrated a doubling of the external quantum efficiency from 12.8% to 27.6% in a singlet donor (TPTPA) through the introduction of thin film singlet fission sensitizer (rubrene) for high efficiency organic solar cells. To reduce the cost of electricity generated by sunlight via LSC systems, replacing the expensive high efficiency visible photovoltaic (PV) elements with cheap, high efficiency, earth abundant near-infrared PV elements made with silicon. This requires replacing within the LSC the visible emitting chromophores with near infrared emitters. Here, we present the use of a lanthanide ion, neodymium--colloidal nanocrystal energy cascade system as a promising LSC emitter scheme for the silicon spectral region. Peak optical quantum efficiencies of 43% in a Nd³+:glass based LSC are demonstrated with simulated high geometric gain performance. With cascade energy transfer, the optical quantum efficiency in the visible of a Nd³+:glass is significantly improved with peak efficiency of 28%. The enhanced solar absorption of Nd³+:glass through cascade energy transfer can be extended into the infrared with more optimal sensitizers. The idea of directly converting broad-band solar radiation into coherent and narrow-band laser radiation could enable many attractive technologies for solar energy. Here, we present an architecture for solar pumped lasers that uses a luminescent solar concentrator to decouple the conventional trade-off between solar absorption efficiency and the mode volume of the optical gain material. We report a 750-[mu]m-thick Nd³+-doped YAG planar waveguide sensitized by a luminescent CdSe/CdZnS (core/shell) colloidal nanocrystal, yielding a peak cascade energy transfer of 14%, a broad spectral response in the visible portion of the solar spectrum, and an equivalent quasi-CW solar lasing threshold of 20 W-cm2 , or approximately 200 suns. The efficient coupling of incoherent, spectrally broad sunlight in small gain volumes should allow the generation of coherent laser light from intensities of less than 100 suns.

Full textThe development of cost-effective materials for effective utilization of solar energy is a major challenge for solving the energy problems that face the world. This thesis work relates to the development of mesoporous materials for solar energy applications in the areas of photocatalytic water splitting and the generation of electricity. Mesoporous materials were employed throughout the studies because of their favorable physico-chemical properties such as high surface areas and large porosities. The first project was related to the use of a cubic periodic mesoporous material, MCM-48. The studies showed that chromium loading directly affected the phase of mesoporous silica formed. Furthermore, within the cubic MCM-48 structure, the loading of polychromate species determined the concentration of solar hydrogen produced. In an effort to determine the potential of mesoporous materials, titanium dioxide was prepared using the Evaporation-Induced Self-Assembly (EISA) synthetic method. The aging period directly determined the amount of various phases of titanium dioxide. This method was extended for the preparation of cobalt doped titanium dioxide for solar simulated hydrogen evolution. In another study, metal doped systems were synthesized using the EISA procedure and rhodamine B (RhB) dye sensitized and metal doped titania mesoporous materials were evaluated for visible light hydrogen evolution. The final study employed various mesoporous titanium dioxide materials for N719 dye sensitized solar cell (DSSC) materials for photovoltaic applications. The materials were extensively characterized using powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), nitrogen physisorption, diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS), UV-Vis spectroscopy, Fourier-Transform-Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR), Raman spectroscopy, chemisorption, photoluminescence (PL), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). In addition, photoelectrochemical measurements were completed using current-voltage (I-V) curves, external quantum efficiency (EQE) curves, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), and transient spectroscopy. The thesis work presented provides a better understanding of the role of mesoporous materials for solar hydrogen and solar electricity production.
