<H4 class="style31 style50" align=center>Has Solar Energy Come of
Age?</H4>
<P class=style9 align=left><FONT size=2>Improvements in cost, efficiency
and reliability are driving increased interest in solar energy among
individuals, investors, companies, governments and researchers. The
increased interest also is prompting the need for a reliable resource that
can assist government agencies, utilities, business and residential users
to make the best decisions about how to apply solar power economically and
efficiently. <IMG alt="Photo of Alfredo Martinez-Morales"
src="../Images/Alfredo-Martinez-Morales.jpg" width=134 height=179> </FONT>
<P class=style9 align=left><FONT size=2>The Southern California Research
Initiative for Solar Energy (SC-RISE), based at UCR’s College of
Engineering - Center for Environmental Research and Technology (CE-CERT),
was established to serve as the “honest broker” for information on all
aspects of solar energy and as a catalyst for the adoption of affordable
solar energy. </FONT>
<P class=style9 align=left><FONT size=2><STRONG>Alfredo A.
Martinez-Morales,</STRONG> Managing Director of SC-RISE, will discuss some
of the latest research in making solar energy more affordable at the
<STRONG>Sept. 25 Randall Lewis Seminar Series.</STRONG> The seminar will
begin at 5:30 p.m. <SPAN id=locationtype>at a new location: CE-CERT, 1084
Columbia Ave., in Riverside. The seminar and parking are free, but seating

<P class=style9 align=left><FONT size=2>Dr. Martinez-Morales also will
discuss the role SC-RISE is taking to advance solar energy technologies,
train professionals for the industry, nurture new ventures and help
commercial and residential energy users in identifying appropriate
applications for solar energy. </FONT>
<P class=style9 align=left><FONT size=2>Dr. Martinez-Morales received his
Ph.D., M.S. and B.S. degrees in electrical engineering from UCR,
conducting his research at the Biomedical Science and Nanotechnology
Laboratory with an emphasis on materials synthesis and third generation
photovoltaics. </FONT>
<P class=style9 align=left><FONT size=2>His current research includes
concentrated photovoltaics (CPV), dye sensitized solar cells (DSSCs),
ordered bulk-heterojunction (OBHJ) solar cells, and Lithium-ion battery
(LiB) technology. </FONT>
<P class=style9 align=left><FONT size=2>Dr. Martinez-Morales has written
or co-written numerous research articles on nanowire arrays, quantum dots
and other findings in the fields of nanoelectronics and photovoltaics. He
