Scientists gain an atom-level view into Perovskite cell efficiency
Using Department of Energy laboratories, scientists learned at the atomic level that a liquid-like motion in perovskites may explain how they efficiently produce electric currents. A team of scientists studied the inner workings of a perovskite material to better...SMART Competition and the Collaborative Learning
The SMART Competition was originally designed as a team-based program that integrated science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) and provided a hands-on, career technology based real-world engineering experience (CTE). The Smart Education Foundation, host of...Transparent Solar Panels
Imagine a world where we could generate electricity using the surface of our windows, smartphones, our car’s sun roof or the glass roof of our office building. What sounds like a far-away dream, is on its way to become reality thanks to transparent solar...Transparent solar cells don’t steal light from greenhouse crops
Advances in transparent solar cells mean that soon we might be able to install them into windows and greenhouses. But in the latter case, would they deprive plants of vital sunlight? To find out, researchers at North Carolina State University grew lettuce under...
