KAUST researchers pave the way for affordable Perovskite-Silicon solar solutions

Posted by in categories: solar power, sustainability

A team of scientists from King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST) has revealed their plan to bring a new type of solar cell to the market, one that could revolutionize the field of renewable energy. The solar cell, called a perovskite/silicon tandem, combines two different materials to capture more sunlight and convert it into electricity.

Perovskite is a material that can absorb light very efficiently, while silicon is a material that can maintain its performance for a long time. By stacking them together, the researchers have achieved record-breaking efficiency levels, surpassing the previous limits of single-material solar cells. In 2023, the KAUST team, led by Professor Stefaan De Wolf, reported two world records for power conversion efficiency and five other records achieved by other groups worldwide. This shows the rapid advancement of perovskite/silicon tandem technology and its potential to dominate the solar market.

From i to u: Searching for the quantum master bit

Posted by in categories: information science, particle physics, quantum physics

Year 2014 Basically once the master qubit is found it could even lead to a sorta master algorithm. Also it could show who actually pulls the strings of reality.


Whatever the u-bit is, it rotates quickly (Image: Natalie Nicklin)

Our best theory of nature has imaginary numbers at its heart. Making quantum physics more real conjures up a monstrous entity pulling the universe’s strings

Production of natural rubber has claimed over 4 million hectares of forest in south-east Asia since 1993 according to a recent study. This destruction of tropical forest for rubber plantations is thought to be 2 to 3 times greater than previous estimates.
