Soft materials could replace silicon to cut solar cell costs

Soft materials could replace silicon to cut solar cell costs

“The way a certain class of photovoltaic materials y converts sunlight into electricity could position them to replace traditional silicon solar cells, researchers say.

The study, which appears in Chem, reveals the unique properties of these inexpensive and quick-to-produce halide perovskites, information that will guide the development of next generation solar cells…”
