An electrode coating just one molecule thick can substantially enhance the efficiency of an organic photovoltaic cell, KAUST scientists have actually found. The coating outperforms the leading product currently made use of for this job and may lead the way for enhancements in various other tools that rely upon organic molecules, such as light-emitting diodes and also photodetectors.

Sunshine uses a prospective service in the look for an energy resource that does not damage the planet, but this relies on discovering a method to successfully turn electro-magnetic power into electricity. Scientists from KAUST have demonstrated how a recognized herbicide can improve this conversion in natural devices.
