Making PV Solar from any Semiconducting Material

semiconductor wires Making PV Solar from any Semiconducting Material

It’s a new way to think about photovoltaic materials that could lead to less-costly PV. Instead of doping silicon or other materials with semiconductors to create a PV cell, the method, called screening-engineered field-effect photovoltaics (SFPV) relies on the electric field effect. This allows a wider range, and likely a less expensive range of materials [...]
