SPEEDHY (Solar PhotoElectrochEmical black Diamond converters for hydrogen and ammonia production) project, funded within the PE5 sector of the PRIN 2022-U40 initiative, aims at demonstrating a new technology, based on defect engineerewww.speedhy.itd diamond structures, for the green production of hydrogen (H₂) and ammonia (NH₃) by exploiting concentrated solar radiation.

The Istituto di Struttura della Materia proposes a mini-colloquium dedicated to "Materials & Devices for Solar and Thermal to Electrical Energy Conversion", organized by Daniele M. Trucchi and Alessandro Bellucci, as part of the FisMat conference, jointly organized with the Conference of the European Society of Physics - Condensed Matter Division.

In the framework of the 14th International "Conference of Surfaces, Coatings and Nanostructured Material – NANOSMAT 2023" - Athens(Greece), 10/14 july 2023, a Special Session on “Nanomaterials and Nanodevices for Energy” will be organized by CNR-ISM in charge of Dr. Alessandro Bellucci. The conference will be held in Athens from 10th to 14th July 2023.

Funded by the Basilicata Region as part of the complex research and development projects "CORES", the IBIS ECO project (IoT-based Building Information System for Energy Efficiency & Comfort) started in January 2022, involving CNR-ISM for the fabrication of hi-tech sensors of polluting gases.
ISM will represent the partner able to satisfy the requirement to supply Key Enabling Technologies (KET), together with the leader Scai Lab, within the consortium.

The paper that demonstrates for the first time the operations of a 3-terminal hybrid thermionic-photovoltaic device at very high temperatures for the conversion of thermal energy into electrical energy has been published in the journal Advanced Energy Materials. The converter is characterized by a common terminal and a thermophotovoltaic cell which also functions as a thermionic anode.

The PARIDE project is starting now! Funded by the regional agency #Lazio_Innova in the framework of the call "Gruppi di Ricerca 2020", merges the competences in electronic devices’ development of #CNR-ISM, here collaborating with #CNR-IC, with those of the Electronic Engineering Dept. of TorVergata University and the know-how of Niccolò Cusano University in the electronic design. Aim of PARIDE is the development of #perovskite #imaging #x-ray_detectors fabricated on flexible substrates and coupled to a compact electronic system for signal elaboration, and characterized by high sensitivity to monitor radiation doses used in surgery #radioprotection and #oncological_radiation therapy.

The project aimed to study the influence of parameters such as the thickness of the active material, the size of the electrodes, the material of the electrodes for the construction of diamond detectors for fast neutrons, in collaboration with Bicocca University and CNR-IFP.

This Integrated Research Program (IRP) has engaged all major European research institutes and other industrial actors in an integrated research structure to successfully achieve the general objectives.

The project had the following objectives: 1) the development of low cost CVD diamond radiation dosimeters for quasi-distributed monitoring; 2) development of dedicated electronics for reading; 3) optimization of the amplification electronics to be applied not only to an ionizing radiation dosimeter, but also to photodiodes used for reading optical signals.

The European project E2PHEST2US had as its objective the development of innovative cogeneration modules for the conversion of concentrated solar energy into small-sized electricity.
