Originating in the thesis that he is developing within the Optics Group (Department of Applied Physics), he will carry out the research under the supervision of professors Fernando Moreno and Francisco Gonz\u00e1lez.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The aim is to continue research on the control of the directionality of the electromagnetic radiation diffused by small dielectric particles of high refractive index, such as silicon, germanium and other semiconductor compounds in the near infrared, and to take advantage of this control to improve the capture of light by photosensitive plates and therefore their energy yield.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the previous project, the influence of the morphology of these particles when deposited on these plates was extensively studied and it was found that their efficiency could be increased by around 6%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The recently awarded project aims to make experimental advances in collaboration with the Fresnel Institute in Marseille (France) and to make concrete practical proposals for further development in engineering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Foundation's support is not only financial, but also allows the selected person to manage a research project as principal investigator, with the usefulness that this entails in his or her training as a Doctor.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Investigadora de la UC obtiene un premio de la Fundaci\u00f3n Iberdrola para la mejora de la eficiencia de c\u00e9lulas solares \u00c1ngela Barreda desarrollar\u00e1 su proyecto en el grupo de Fernando Moreno y Francisco Gonz\u00e1lez La estudiante de doctorado de la Universidad de Cantabria \u00c1ngela Inmaculada Barreda G\u00f3mez desarrollar\u00e1 el proyecto \u201cMejora de la eficiencia energ\u00e9tica [&hellip;]<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":4607,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[1],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/fotoglass.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4606"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/fotoglass.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/fotoglass.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fotoglass.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fotoglass.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4606"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/fotoglass.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4606\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fotoglass.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4607"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/fotoglass.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4606"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fotoglass.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4606"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fotoglass.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4606"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
