Organic molecules that record photons and also convert these into electrical energy have vital applications for generating environment-friendly power. Light-harvesting facilities need 2 semiconductors, an electron benefactor as well as an acceptor. Exactly how well they function is determined by their quantum efficiency, the price whereby photons are exchanged electron-hole pairs.

Scientists from Karlsruhe Institute of Technology have developed a brand-new manufacture strategy based on inkjet printing that might make it possible for quick, effective and also scalable production of perovskite solar cells.

The Carl Zeiss Foundation has invested €4.5m in the R&D project by the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology in Germany. The KIT research team is going to invent whole new photovoltaic cells, which are supposed to provide all the benefits of organic, crystalline silicon and perovskite solar cells, such as printability, stability and ferroelectric properties.

Scientists at Germany’s Karlsruhe Institute of Technology have developed a new class of electrolytes they say could bring calcium batteries – currently only a lab technology – a step closer to being a practical reality for energy storage.
