Making Super Solar Cells: A New Block for Ultra-Efficient Power

Scientists are always looking for ways to make solar cells better, especially for buildings. Current ultra-narrow bandgap solar cells have issues like high energy levels and poor performance. One team has come up with a new idea: use benzothiazole-fused cyanoindone (BTC) as a key part of the solar c
