A new study reports the discovery of an entirely new stable, earth-abundant, high-performance material for solar absorbers -- the central part of a solar cell that turns light into electricity. While ...

Earlier this year, two-layer solar cells broke records with 33 percent efficiency. The cells are made of a combination of silicon and a material called a perovskite. However, these tandem solar cells ...

Cell culture materials impact a target cell’s ability to proliferate and function as planned. These materials offer precise mechanical and chemical cues that decide a cell's morphology and ...

(Nanowerk News) Artificial structures called cellular materials have a network of internal spaces within a solid cell-like matrix. Their porous foam-like architecture combines advantages of low ...

Formamidinium lead iodide is considered one of the best-performing materials in the halide perovskite group, since it has promising properties for future solar cell technologies. New findings from ...

A recent study published in eLife has uncovered a crucial mechanism in cellular material management: endosome maturation. The research team was led by Dr. Ding Mei and Dr. He Kangmin from the ...

Autophagy, which literally means "self-eating," is a cellular cleaning-out process that maintains our bodies in good order, but excessive autophagy can be too much of a good thing. Now Weizmann ...
