Topic:  Green and Bright Technologies and Materials at Umeå University
Date: 15 November 2024, at 13.00-14.00

Speakers: Ludvig Edman, Professor UmU: “Light-Emitting Electrochemical Cells:  Basic Understanding for Functional and Sustainable Devices” and Thomas Wågberg, Professor UmU: ”A materials perspective on green hydrogen production – state of the art and challenges”

Summary:
Ludvig Edman will present a novel light-emission technology, which can be fabricated by sustainable ambient-air printing. He will further show that an enabling factor for efficient light emission is the control of the constituent electrochemical doping processes for the attainment of a tuned p-n junction doping structure.

Thomas Wågberg will introduce a materials perspective on green hydrogen production. He will specifically present recent strategies for the replacement of critical raw materials in water electrolysis and advancements that lie around the corner in electrolysis technology.
