A new University of Washington institute to develop efficient, cost-effective solar power and better energy storage systems has been launched.

Quantum waves at the heart of organic solar cells

Researchers have been able to tune 'coherence' in organic nanostructures due to the surprise discovery of wavelike electrons in organic materials, revealing the key to generating "long-lived charges" in organic solar cells - material that could revolutionise solar energy.

FUJIFILM

Fujifilm has been actively developing a flexible high barrier film and this profile focuses mainly on these activities.

Komori Corporation

This profile focuses on describing Komori's printing presses and systems technology.

Philips Corporate Technologies

The smart window/glass technology from Philips is based on e-paper principles - particles are moved from the edge of a cell across a cell when voltage is applied. Light transmission through the glass can be controlled between 1 to 70%

Mazda

Mazda Motor Corporation is a Japanese car manufacturer based in Fuchū, Hiroshima Prefecture. It was the fifteenth biggest automaker worldwide with sales of $20 billion that year. Over the past thirty years FORD had a strong interest in the company, owning up to a third of the company at one point, but it has now completely scaled back and owns just 3% of the company. The company is launching a new concept of hybrid electric car, the first supercapacitor based car in 2014.
