Material design approach improves solar cell efficiency

May 3, 2013 By Leave a Comment
The correlated electron "metal" SrRuO3 exhibits strong visible slight absorption. Overlaid here on the AM1.5G solar spectrum, it can be seen that SrRuO3 absorbs more than 75 times more light than TiO2. The structural, chemical, and electronic compatibility of TiO2 and SrRuO3 further enables the fabrication of heterojunctions with exciting photovoltaic and photocatalytic response driven by hot-carrier injection. Lane Martin, University of Illinois.

Development method allows researchers to more efficiently utilize the solar spectrum.
