Machine-learning to forecast the efficiency of natural solar cells
Picture looking for the optimal setup to construct a natural solar cell made from various polymers. Exactly how would certainly you start? Does the energetic layer demand to be extremely thick, or very slim? Does it require a large or a small amount of each polymer? Understanding exactly how to predict the particular structure and also cell design that would cause optimal efficiency is one of the best unresolved problems in products scientific research.
