Towards indoor lighting-powered thin-film, flexible solar cells with piezophototronics

Kyoto, Japan (SPX) Jun 10, 2022
In 2010, a research team led by Professor Zhong Lin Wang at Georgia Institute of Technology, USA, showed that the use of piezoelectric materials (materials that generate electrical energy on applying mechanical strain) could improve the performance of optoelectronic devices – devices that convert light into electricity (e.g. solar cells) or electricity into light (e.g. light-emitting diodes or L This article was originally published by Solardaily.com.
