Researchers found a way to boost the efficiency of organic solar cells several times

Posted on by Haptic

An international team of materials scientists from France, Russia and Kazakhstan found a way to boost the efficiency of organic solar cells several times. The new study, published in the Journal of Materials Chemistry A, has shown that ordered structures based on organic molecules can be used to produce solar power. Solar panels, or batteries, are one Read more about Researchers found a way to boost the efficiency of organic solar cells several times[…]

A new ground for the creation of memory elements for light

Posted on by Haptic

A group of physicists from Russia, Sweden, and the U.S. has demonstrated a highly unusual optical effect: They managed to “virtually” absorb light using a material that has no light-absorbing capacity. The research findings, published in Optica, break new ground for the creation of memory elements for light. The absorption of electromagnetic radiation — light, among other things — is Read more about A new ground for the creation of memory elements for light[…]

Theoretical proof of the existence of a new class of materials

Posted on by Haptic

A team of researchers from the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology (MIPT) and the Institute for Theoretical and Applied Electrodynamics (ITAE) of the Russian Academy of Sciences (RAS), in collaboration with a colleague from RIKEN (Institute for Physical and Chemical Research in Japan), has provided theoretical proof of the existence of a new class of materials. It was suggested that such systems Read more about Theoretical proof of the existence of a new class of materials[…]

Scientists come up with light-driven motors to power nanorobots of the future

Posted on by Haptic

Scientists from the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology (MIPT), Semenov Institute of Chemical Physics of the Russian Academy of Sciences (ICP RAS), and Chuiko Institute of Surface Chemistry of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine (ISC NASU) have proposed a model nanosized dipole photomotor based on the phenomenon of light-induced charge redistribution. Triggered by a Read more about Scientists come up with light-driven motors to power nanorobots of the future[…]
