Grätzel – The InfoGreenGlobal https://infogreenglobal.com The InfoGreenGlobal Sun, 10 Sep 2023 22:23:28 +0000 en-US hourly 1 Solar cell raises the bar for low-cost designs https://infogreenglobal.com/solar-cell-raises-the-bar-for-low-cost-designs/ https://infogreenglobal.com/solar-cell-raises-the-bar-for-low-cost-designs/#respond Thu, 24 May 2012 18:57:32 +0000 http://infogreenglobal.com/?p=5243 Researchers have tapped a novel material to develop a low-cost, efficient, and environmentally friendly solar cell. In particular, the device is the first to solve the problem of the Grätzel cell, a promising technology with a significant disadvantage: it leaks. The dye-sensitized cell’s electrolyte is made of an organic liquid, which can leak and corrode […]

By changing the composition and color of the cells, an EPFL team has increased their efficiency to more than 12%. Their results have just been published in Science. A group of scientists in EPFL’s Laboratory of Photonics and Interfaces, under the leadership of EPFL […]
