Figure 1: Device structure and energy levels of the inverted-type PSCs. Figure 2: Device performances of the inverted structure (ITO/PFN interlayer/active layer/MoO 3 (10 nm)/Al) PTB7:PC 71 BM PSCs ...

The energy density of supercapacitors -- battery-like devices that can charge in seconds or a few minutes -- can be improved by increasing the 'messiness' of their internal structure. Researchers used ...

They named an entire region in California in its honor, as silicon is indeed one of the most valuable chemical elements of our times. We use it for transistors, computer chips, solar cells, engine ...

Owing to the many different ways atoms can be arranged within the material, ice can exist in many more forms than what’s known as ice I, the type we’re all familiar with. Scientists have actually ...

A team led by Carnegie’s Thomas Shiell and Timothy Strobel developed a new method for synthesizing a novel crystalline form of silicon with a hexagonal structure that could potentially be used to ...
