2015 A new breed of quantum dots (QDS) could enable multilayer solar cells that capture more of the sun energy.
"These unique thermal properties allow us to heat the suspended graphene to up to half of the temperature of the sun
#New Sun-Blocking Material Uses Compounds From Algae And Fish Researchers have used compounds found in algae
and the film was stable after 12 hours of sun exposure or temperatures up to 176 degrees Fahrenheit.
of which can be damaged by too much sun exposure. Presumably the researchers would hope to reach the biggest possible market with a biocompatible sunscreen:
because its sun-blocking components are all found in nature i
#New Treatment Lets Paralyzed Patients Move Their Legs Researchers at UCLA have done something they didn think was possible:
#Stretchy Sensors Remind You to Take a Break from the Sun Researchers at RMIT University in Australia have developed stretchy sensors that detect harmful UV radiation and toxic gases such as hydrogen and nitrogen dioxide.
when they need to take a break from the sun. They are capable of detecting harmful levels of UV radiation,
so they know to get out of the sun and find some shade. The sensors can also be placed on work
so it shouldn come as a surprise that French company Spinali Design has created a smart bikini to help women monitor sun exposure responsibly.
or get out of the sun altogether, depending on the wearer intentions. The Spinali app also includes a Valentine function that allows the wearer designated partner to get in on the action.
A team of European researchers has announced just that they've set a new record by creating black silicon solar cells that can convert 22.1 percent of the Sun's light into electricity-an increase of almost four percent on their previous record.
when the Sun was low in the sky.""This is an advantage particularly in the north,
where the sun shines from a low angle for a large part of the year, "project coordinator Hele Savin from Aalto University in Finland said in a press release."
Basically, this means that we may soon see solar panels on the market that can create electricity no matter where the Sun is in the sky,
and has no cover from the hot summer sun. Despite the conditions, they showed that the roof was able to stay significantly colder than the air around it,
The dream is one day wel be using nothing but the boundless energy of the Sun to not only power our homes, but our cars
#Self-assembled nanotextures create antireflective surface on silicon solar cells Reducing the amount of sunlight that bounces off the surface of solar cells helps maximize the conversion of the sun's rays to electricity,
or sun he adds. To date Eolgreen has signed agreements with the port of Huelva and the municipal authorities of Sant Boi de Llobregat Girona and several towns in Andalusia.
It also can effectively harness the inexhaustible energy from the sun."The work is a product of the 2013 National Science Foundation $400,
and use one of the larger sources of energy available to us--the sun, "Behbehani said.
said Steven Sun, a Hong kong analyst for HSBC. lso, there have been controlling shareholders, significant shareholders and corporate management trying to cash out.
and have to be pointed very accurately to track the sun throughout the day. But you can put a system like this on your roof,
Because the focal point moves with the sun over the course of a day the middle solar cell sheet tracks by sliding laterally in between the lenslet array.
when the sun is shining. ith the option of taking part in demand management schemes, the system can also reward households for using less electricity during peak energy periods.
#UCLA chemists devise technology that could transform solar energy storage The materials in most of today residential rooftop solar panels can store energy from the sun for only a few microseconds at a time.
which is found in the sun rays and breaks down many materials. They discovered that under such direct exposure,
but the sun is down. lot of people are not at home during the day, they are at work,
#MIT researcher develops solar-powered desalination technology A student at Massachusetts institute of technology (MIT) has designed a village-scale desalination technology that is powered by the sun
The ultraviolet light from the sun rays are used to kill biological contaminants in the water. While similar desalination technologies have already been discovered,
