Co-operating Institutes

-Caltech Center for Sustainable Energy Research (CCSER): The CCSER is involved in Solar reasearch and the use of solar technology in replacing fossil fuels as a primary energy source.  This center has been working closely with CCI Solar towards the ultimate goal of sustainable solar energy powering industry and technology around the world.

-MIT Energy Initiative (MITEI): The MITEI is another institute involved in research and innovation in the field of sustainable energy including solar power.  The Initiative works with the CCI Solar to find more efficient and reliable sources of energy.

Penn State Center for Proton-Coupled Electron Transfer:  This web site developed by Dr. Sharon Hammes-Schiffer's group provides basic information on proton-coupled electron-transfer (PCET) reactions as well as a  series of Java Servlets to enable calculations of PCET rates with harmonic, Morse, and general proton potentials using "exact," fixed proton donor-acceptor distance R, low-frequency R-mode, and high-frequency R-mode rate constant expressions.  The rates and KIEs can be plotted as a function of temperature and driving force, and an analysis of the contributions of all relevant pairs of reactant/product vibronic states is provided.
