Nanopillars Promise Cheap, Efficient, Flexible Solar Cells (PhysOrg)

Friday, July 10, 2009 | News

(PhysOrg.com) — Researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy’s Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory and the University of California at Berkeley have demonstrated a way to fabricate efficient solar cells from low-cost and flexible materials. The new design grows optically active semiconductors in arrays of nanoscale pillars, each a single crystal, with dimensions measured in billionths of a …
