Nanoplasmonics and Reducing Our Carbon Footprint
May 26th
2009
Kylie Catchpole, a research fellow at the Centre for Sustainable Energy Systems at ANU, will give two talks. The first will be about nanoplasmonics for solar cells - what it is, and how it can help solar cells become more efficient and cheaper. The second will be about carbon footprinting - what are the major factors that contribute to the very high carbon footprints of Australians, and what are the main things that can be done on a personal level to reduce them.
