Shattering Efficiency Limits: New Material Outperforms Traditional Solar Cells

Researchers investigate the bulk photovoltaic effect in a promising material for future solar energy harvesting technologies. The bulk photovoltaic (BPV) effect is a rare phenomenon that could allow certain materials to surpass the performance of traditional p–n junctions in solar cells. In a recent breakthrough, researchers in Japan have experimentally confirmed the BPV effect in […]
