Scientists Solve a Long-Standing Solar Cell Problem, Boosting Efficiency by Nearly 30%
(scitechdaily.com)
The introduction of a nanometric germanium oxide layer drastically improved device performance and stability. As the global demand for clean energy accelerates, solar power continues to attract attention because it is widely available and can be scaled to meet growing needs. Alongside this push, sci...
A hidden pigment helps ocean algae harness sunlight without getting burned—and it may hold clues for better solar tech. Too much sunlight can spoil a beach day, and it can also damage photosynthesis, the process plants and algae use to turn light into energy. Excessive exposure can overwhelm this sy...
Defect-filled lead-halide perovskites rival silicon solar cells because domain walls inside the material separate and guide charges. Researchers visualized these charge-transport networks using a novel silver-staining technique, resolving a long-standing efficiency mystery. Perovskites made from lea...
