Researchers Probe Inner Workings of Solar Panels

Facebook X LinkedIn Email
MONTREAL, July 3, 2014 — Using femtosecond stimulated Raman spectroscopy (SRS), scientists now understand the inner workings of plastic solar panels. A team from the University of Montreal, in conjunction with England’s Science and Technology Facilities Council, Imperial College London and the University of Cyprus, says the findings could further efforts to improve solar panels and broaden their use. “Our findings are of key importance for a fundamental mechanistic understanding, with molecular detail, of all solar conversion systems,” said Françoise Provencher, a doctoral...Read full article
