New Class of Nanoparticles Could Herald Flexible Solar Cells

Facebook X LinkedIn Email
TORONTO, June 10, 2014 — Nanoparticles could prompt a new generation of outdoor solar cells that may replace the traditional. A team from the Edward S. Rogers Sr. Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Toronto — in collaboration with Dalhousie University, King Abdullah University of Science and Technology and Huazhong University of Science and Technology — has designed a class of solar-sensitive nanoparticles that they say outperforms traditional solar cells. Called colloidal quantum dots, the new solid, stable nanoparticles could allow for more flexible solar...Read full article
