The scientists explored different architectures of perovskite cells, preparing them under identical conditions using metal -
oxide electron transport layers (ETL) such as TiO2 and SnO2.
Dr. Rosso's current projects include the following: (1) characterizing the kinetics and mechanisms of elementary charge and ion
transport processes in redox transformation of iron
oxide minerals, (2) predicting molecular - scale
electron transfer kinetics in microbially - mediated reduction of bioavailable iron in subsurface environments, (3) studying mechanisms of heterogeneous reduction of contaminant U (VI) and Tc (VII) by Fe (II)- bearing minerals, (4) simulation of coupled charge and ion
transport in transition metal
oxide electrodes for advanced materials applications, (5) probing mechanisms and kinetics of mineral transformation to metal carbonates for geological carbon sequestration, and (6) studying mechanisms of uptake and retention of uranium in sediments.
