Grim Reaper 6 Posted November 25, 2021 #1 Share Posted November 25, 2021 Rice lab finds 2D perovskite compound has the right stuff to challenge bulkier products. Rice University engineers have achieved a new benchmark in the design of atomically thin solar cells made of semiconducting perovskites, boosting their efficiency while retaining their ability to stand up to the environment. The lab of Aditya Mohite of Rice’s George R. Brown School of Engineering discovered that sunlight itself contracts the space between atomic layers in 2D perovskites enough to improve the material’s photovoltaic efficiency by up to 18%, an astounding leap in a field where progress is often measured in fractions of a percent.

+Noteverythingisaconspiracy Posted November 27, 2021 #2 Share Posted November 27, 2021 Perrovskite solar cells are probably going to be a game changer once they get into mass production. They promise to be significantly cheaper than the allready competitive cells that we have now. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But not only cheaper, more powerful and they appear to longer lasting. peace bro 9 hours ago, Tatetopa said: My old school BTW.
