17-04-2013 Lecture: "Developing new solar cells - cheaper, or more efficient?" (United Kingdom)

A lecture entitled 'Developing new solar cells - cheaper, or more efficient' will take place on 17 April 2013 in London, UK.

The lecture will focus on how the performance of these devices can be improved by understanding and controlling the complex nanostructures that allow charges to be extracted from the active layer. It will also present a new approach that might make it possible to break the 34% efficiency limit that applies to all simple solar cells. This could be done by extracting the energy from the blue and green parts of the solar spectrum that is usually wasted.
