\n There are 18 people in the group, with researchers, technical staff, administrative staff and trainee research staff, and we come under the Solar Energy Institute (IES).<\/span>\n <\/p>\n

\n The group is located at the Institute, which has its central headquarters in the Higher Technical School for Telecommunications Engineers. We have been carrying out our work researching photovoltaic solar energy, along with four other UPM research groups, since 1979.<\/span>\n <\/p>","imagen":false,"responsable":"Carlos Del Ca\u00f1izo Nadal","lineas":"New concepts in solar cells\nQuantum calculations for solar cells\ntechnology of silicon solar cell\nTheory of silicon solar cells","direccion":"","telefono":"910672535","pagina_web":"http:\/\/www.ies.upm.es\/","email":"carlos.canizo@upm.es","actividades":"

\n Our research activity is backed up by more than fifty research projects, of which more than half are international projects. We have coordinated a dozen of them, and can highlight the FULLSPECTRUM (FP6) project, which was selected by the European Commission as one of the best 40 projects in the entire 6th Framework Programme.<\/span>\n <\/p>\n

\n In addition, the group's members have been highly involved in technology transfer and giving value to the research results, via spin-offs (ISOFOTON and INSPIRA) and strategic alliances (ISFOC and CENTESIL).<\/span>\n <\/p>\n

\n We also offer technology services which are certified under the ISO9001 standard via IBLAB (Material profiling and new generation solar cells laboratory). A highlight of our capabilities is a Molecular Beam Epitaxy (MBE) team, which is one of the latest, most advanced generations worldwide, with technical features that make it unique amongst those existing at European research centres.<\/span>\n <\/p>","contenido":"","pictures":"http:\/\/www.upm.es\/observatorio\/vi\/gestor_general\/recuperar_archivo.jsp?id=634\rhttp:\/\/www.upm.es\/observatorio\/vi\/gestor_general\/recuperar_archivo.jsp?id=635\rhttp:\/\/www.upm.es\/observatorio\/vi\/gestor_general\/recuperar_archivo.jsp?id=636\rhttp:\/\/www.upm.es\/observatorio\/vi\/gestor_general\/recuperar_archivo.jsp?id=637\rhttp:\/\/www.upm.es\/observatorio\/vi\/gestor_general\/recuperar_archivo.jsp?id=638\rhttp:\/\/www.upm.es\/observatorio\/vi\/gestor_general\/recuperar_archivo.jsp?id=639\rhttp:\/\/www.upm.es\/observatorio\/vi\/gestor_general\/recuperar_archivo.jsp?id=640\rhttp:\/\/www.upm.es\/observatorio\/vi\/gestor_general\/recuperar_archivo.jsp?id=641\rhttp:\/\/www.upm.es\/observatorio\/vi\/gestor_general\/recuperar_archivo.jsp?id=642\rhttp:\/\/www.upm.es\/observatorio\/vi\/gestor_general\/recuperar_archivo.jsp?id=643","descripcion":"

\n One of our aims is to study the limits of photovoltaic solar energy conversion, with particular emphasis on identifying mechanisms that can drastically improve current conversion performance. Amongst these mechanisms, we are promoting Intermediate Band Solar Cells, which is a field of research initiated by us and which has had great international impact.\n <\/p>\n

\n On the other hand, the research we do is aimed at supporting the Spanish and European crystalline silicon solar cell industry (which are the majority of those on the market) for the purpose of lowering costs and developing new products.\n <\/p>\n

\n We do all this with three lines of research:\n <\/p>\n
