Abstract:
Currently the world's fastest growing energy technology, photovoltaic production is increasing by roughly 50% each year. Find out more about current developments, network with other researchers and share research interests in a free online workshop on ‘Nanotechnology and Photovoltaics' organized by the ICPC Nanonet project on Friday April 16 from 12.45-15.15 GMT (13.45-16.15 BST).
Expert speakers include Prof Dr Wim Sinke - a representative of the European Technology Platform on Photovoltaics, Prof Dr Lucimara S. Roman - a senior expert in Nanotechnology for Photovoltaics and Prof. Dr Teketel Yohannes Anshebo - of the University of Addis Ababa and Director of the African School on Nanoscience for Solar Energy Conversion to be held in May.
Participation is free for registered users of the ICPC-NanoNet website (sign up free of charge at www.icpc-nanonet.org).

About ICPC NanoNet project
ICPCNanoNet is a support action funded by the EU under FP7 for four years from 1st June 2008. It brings together partners from the EU, China, India and Russia and aims to provide wider access to published nanoscience research, and opportunities for collaboration between scientists in the EU and International Cooperation Partner Countries (ICPC). This is being achieved through an open access electronic archive of nanoscience publications (Nano Archive) and tools to facilitate networking between scientists in different world regions.
ICPCNanoNet is coordinated by the Institute of Nanotechnology (UK) and includes Sociedade Portuguesa de Inovação (Portugal), St Petersburg Electrotechnical University (Russia), Jawaharlal Nehru Centre for Advanced Scientific Research (India), Chinese Society of Micro-Nano Technology (China), MERIT, Universiteit Maastricht (Netherlands), and Malsch TechnoValuation (Netherlands).
