Rutgers discovery paves way for development of efficient, inexpensive plastic solar cells
NEW BRUNSWICK, N.J. — Physicists at Rutgers University have discovered new properties in a material that could result in efficient and inexpensive plastic solar cells for pollution-free electricity production.
The discovery, posted online and sl…
Structure of plastic solar cells impedes their efficiency
A team of researchers from North Carolina State University and the U.K. has found that the low rate of energy conversion in all-polymer solar-cell technology is caused by the structure of the solar cells themselves. They hope that their findings wil…
