Efficient Photovoltaics with Dye Combinations

Innovative Design: A team of chemists has developed a novel light-harvesting system that could make solar energy utilization even more efficient in the future. They used four photoactive dyes, stacked similarly to the photosynthetic pigments found in the cellular organelles of plants and bacteria. This combination allows the dyes to absorb a substantial amount of […]
