LIMNO develops new understanding of photocatalyst surface chemistry

Published:02.10.26 — Researchers from the LIMNO laboratory at EPFL have uncovered how different halides modify the surface chemistry of organic semiconductor nanoparticle photocatalysts. By controlling these phenomena, they have significantly improved the solar hydrogen production efficiency of these materials.

LIMNO at PSCO 2026

Published:02.10.26 — Louise De Cian (3rd year PhD) and Waygen Thor (Postdoc) attended the PSCO conference in Lausanne last week, representing the lab at one of the key gatherings in the perovskite and semiconductor community.

A New Organic Spacer for Layered Perovskite Solar Cells

Published:18.08.26 — LIMNO researchers have designed a visible-light-absorbing organic spacer that turns the layered “2D” perovskites into an active part of the solar cell, extending light harvesting to 650 nm and boosting performance five-fold over conventional spacers.

More Stable Organic Photoanodes for Solar Water Splitting

Published:24.07.26 — The LIMNO lab has developed a new bilayer organic semiconductor architecture that dramatically improves the stability of photoanodes for solar-driven water splitting. The work, led by Dr. Jin Su Park, brings durable organic photoelectrochemical devices a significant step closer to practical solar hydrogen production.
