Solar Efficiency of Black Silicon Doubled
BERLIN, Oct. 2, 2012 — A solar material that takes advantage of a spectrum totally unused by standard cells could be the key to more efficient photovoltaics, now that a team in Germany has successfully doubled its efficiency.
Cost-effective infrared lenses produced
FREIBURG, Germany – Once the process is refined enough to make mass production cost-effective, the microbolometers could become practical for application such as production process monitoring, warning systems and energy audits. A new fabrication process that its...
Electrons in QDs Observed Absorbing, Emitting Light
DRESDEN, Germany, Oct. 1, 2012 — The special energy states of electrons confined in quantum dots were observed for the first time, a feat that could help exploit the unique properties of the nanoscale semiconductor materials for technological applications.
EPIC: PV industry growing strong
Oct 1, 2012 — Revenues in the photovoltaics (PV) industry reached a record high of $93 billion in 2011, a 13.4 percent gain over 2010 – and 150 percent over 2009 – according to a recent report by EPIC, the Paris-based European Photonics Industry...
New robot handles with care
Oct 1, 2012 — Don’t you just hate it when your personal robot makes a mess instead of an omelet, crushing the eggs when it tries to pick them up? Well, a new five-digit, human-size robotic hand prototype could put an end to all that. Thanks to optical and...
System simultaneously uses loss, gain
ERLANGEN, Germany – Light absorption or loss, usually seen as a disadvantage in optical metamaterials, actually can have useful applications. Physicists at Friedrich Alexander University Erlangen-Nuremberg borrowed a concept from quantum field theory in designing a new...
Toward an “unbreakable” message exchange
WÜRZBURG, Germany – Single particles of light produced and implemented into a quantum key distribution (QKD) link could pave the way for unbreakable communication networks. The single photons were produced by a collaboration of German scientists using two devices made...
