DESCRIPTION:Prof. Jeffrey Grossman\, MIT Materials Science and Engineering\
 , gives a talk hosted by APhys.\n\nMaterials Design for Applications in So
 lar and Thermal Energy\n\nCurrent renewable energy conversion and storage 
 technologies are too expensive\, too inefficient\, or both\, substantially
  limiting their use and global impact. At the core of these challenges is 
 a materials choice: many of the key mechanisms are dominated by the intrin
 sic properties of the active materials involved. Our imperative is thus to
  predict\, identify and manufacture new materials and designs as comprehen
 sively and rapidly as possible. Toward that end\, we use a combination of 
 computational and experimental approaches that serve to elucidate fundamen
 tal mechanisms that govern the efficiency in these materials in order to d
 esign and demonstrate new concepts and solutions. Examples of our recent w
 ork in the areas of solar photovoltaics and solar thermal fuels will be pr
 esented. \n\nLunch will be provided.
