Quantum technologies, computers or other devices that operate leveraging quantum mechanical effects, rely on the precise ...

Defect-filled lead-halide perovskites rival silicon solar cells because domain walls inside the material separate and guide charges. Researchers visualized these charge-transport networks using a ...

In the strange world of quantum physics, even the tiniest tweak can unlock outsized rewards.

NYU researchers have found a way to use light to control how microscopic particles assemble into crystals, effectively turning illumination into a tool for shaping matter. By adding light-sensitive ...

Researchers from Rice University developed a bottom-up microwave plasma chemical vapor deposition method for growing ...

Crystalline silicon solar cells currently dominate the global photovoltaic industry, with tunnel oxide passivating contact (TOPCon) technology—a type of architecture within this product ...

The Chinese manufacturer claims the new efficiency result sets a world record for industrial-scale TOPCon solar cells on M10-size wafers. The achievement was verified by an undisclosed independent ...

Researchers at NYU have developed a way to use light to precisely direct how microscopic particles assemble into crystals. The findings, published today (February 24) in the Cell Press journal Chem, ...

Photonic crystal sensor shows over 91% accuracy for cervical cancer screening, maintaining performance across varied ...

A team from the Institute of Materials Science of Seville (ICMS), a joint center of the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC) and the University of Seville (US), has developed a new hybrid device ...

Future devices will continue to probe the frontier of the very small, and at scales where functionality depends on mere atoms, even the tiniest flaw matters. Researchers at Rice University have shown ...
