Dye-sensitized solar cells attain a new power conversion performance record
Mesoscopic dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs) were designed in 1990s by Brian O'Regan and Michael Grätzel, taking on the latter's name-- the world-famous Grätzel cells. DSCs convert light into electrical power via photosensitizers-- dye compounds that absorb light and inject electrons into an array of oxide nanocrystals which ultimately are collected as electrical current.

Neural networks improving solar power forecasting
An international research team has developed a new approach for solar power forecasting that combines neural networks and pattern sequences for the first time. The performance of the new Pattern Sequence Neural Network (PSNN) was tested on an Australian data set that includes information from two years of forecasts. It can be used with different clustering and cluster-sequence extraction algorithms, and can be applied to multiple related time sequences
