Nanotubes, Nanostructures and Solar Cells Ononye, Lawretta State University of New York at Canton, NY “Session:” Interdisciplinary programs, sustainability and alternative energy as related to engineering educationAbstract Nanotechnology is the key to new solar cells devices in search of sustainable andrenewable sources of energy. Although silicon cells based on solid-state p-n junction deviceshave dominated the field, they are inherently expensive. Thus, a “promising third generation” ofphotovoltaic (plastic solar cells, dye sensitized solar cell, nano-technology cell, and the hybrids)has been researched; and are

more approachable than faculty instructors andserve as role models to students in classes that they teach1. However, undergraduate students inscience, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) fields have few opportunities to workas course instructors or teaching assistants, and even fewer opportunities to explore and developscholarly approaches to teaching.Although many undergraduates gain teaching experience through peer tutoring programs, theseprograms usually do not provide formal training for peer tutors about best practices for STEMinstruction. Furthermore, undergraduates may not recognize that learning how to teach moreeffectively is a professional development skill that could be useful to them in non-teachingfocused STEM fields

Examples of laboratoryexercises are presented, and experimental results are discussed.IntroductionSolar panels, LED lighting, and rechargeable battery energy storage are used in manyapplications and products of everyday life. Many engineering technology students mayeventually find careers in fields that involve these energy conversion technologies [1]. Tointroduce first-year students to some of the concepts involved in these technologies and increaseawareness of solar energy [2], a laboratory exercise was developed around the components of aninexpensive solar garden light fixture.

An emphasis is given in this paper to incorporate someapplications of composites in an innovative way to undergraduate students. The experience shows that this is aviable and inexpensive approach to complement the education on composite materials. Introduction Applications of fiber composite materials and sandwich structures are significant in the design andmanufacturing of aerospace vehicles.

A veritable alphabet soup of wireless applications (WiFi, WiMAX, RFID andZigBee to name but a fewa) are not only in use now but wider bandwidth, faster wirelessnetworks are projected for the future. In fact, the International Technology Roadmap forSemiconductors (ITRS) shows that RF and “wireless applications may replace computers as thekey driver in manufacturing” over the next 10 years1.

Among these are giants such as the pharmaceutical and chemical industries, andeven more traditional industries like clay and glass.
