Debra Roberts 'Overshooting 1.5 °C highly likely; we need to think about a plan B'On 8 November, Debra Roberts, a part-time professor at the University of Twente, gave the first Climate Colloquium titled: ‘Everything you need to know about climate change – latest findings from the IPCC’. Serving as both a Co-Chair of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) and a practitioner in local government in Africa, she emphasized the urgency of taking climate action: “It's no longer a matter of ‘if’ we will overshoot the 1.5-degree global warming threshold but rather ‘when’. This scenario represents a dangerous world, one we have never encountered. We need to think now about how to act then.”Read more
Creating efficient transparent p-type conductorsTransparent conductors are essential for many devices, such as touch screens and solar cells. Copper iodide (CuI) can conduct electricity while staying see-through but is not as good as some other materials. Researchers from the University of Twente managed to improve the conductivity of CuI while keeping 75% of its transparency. By adding a tiny bit of sulphur, their new material moves us one step closer to fully transparent electronic devices.Read more
