Solar cells boost efficiency by directing light emission
Original: Solar cells gain efficiency by emitting light in fewer directions
Researchers report that solar cells can become more efficient by emitting light in fewer directions, concentrating the light they give off instead of scattering it widely. The approach, covered by Tech Xplore, points to design changes that could improve photovoltaic performance. It is part of ongoing efforts to squeeze more output from solar technology as demand for clean energy grows.
Why now: New research on improving solar cell efficiency is of broad interest amid rising attention to clean energy.
