A step forward for single-crystal perovskites
Researchers in the United States have actually established a lithography-based process for the construction of single-crystal perovskites. Thin films made using this procedure have been incorporated into a range of devices, including solar cells, and also have demonstrated much better security performance than their more frequently looked into polycrystalline counterparts.

Solar Farm in Space? European Space Agency Contemplates the Idea
Scientists are propogating an enthusiastic plan to harness solar power from orbit to power the planet. At a two-day conference in Paris, the European Space Agency (ESA), which the UK is a part of, is disputing ideas for developing a solar farm in space. To transfer microwave energy to Earth, analogous to the high-frequency radio waves located in a microwave oven, the SOLARIS project gathers sunshine over a huge location in space.
