SHORT CV

Deneb Menda completed her Ph.D. in Physics in Istanbul, Turkey, with a thesis focused on silicon heterojunction solar cells. Since 2019, she has been working on perovskite solar cells within the Photovoltaics Group. Her research activities covers a range of topics, including single-junction perovskite solar cells, tandem devices coupled with silicon, intermediate band solar cells, and the exploration of alternative flexible substrates and transparent electrodes for device fabrication.
