The latest research in ACS Applied Energy Materials has shown that vertically aligned silicon nanowire (VA-SiNW) arrays are capable of massively increasing light absorption and causing a significant ...
Absorption spectroscopy is an analytical chemistry tool that can determine if a particular substance is present in a sample by measuring the intensity of the light absorbed as a function of wavelength ...
Controlling a molecule is not always simple. For instance, the precise arrangement of electrons in an organic molecule determines the wavelengths of light it can absorb; this can be challenging to ...
Scientists have unraveled the evolutionary journey of a unique type of photosynthesis that allows some bacteria to harness far-red light, a region beyond the visible spectrum. This discovery could ...
Copper cobaltate nanoneedles coated with zinc oxide hit 99.5 percent light absorption, surpassing carbon nanotubes and boosting concentrated solar power efficiency. That will pave the way towards ...
Researchers have created a dye-sensitized photocatalyst that captures long-wavelength visible light to double solar hydrogen production efficiency.
