POPUP: Novel organic solar cells Posted: 13 Dec 2013 06:34 AM PST Future solar cells will be light and mechanically flexible. They will be produced at low costs with the help of printing processes. Scientists aim at developing more efficient materials and new architectures for organic photovoltaic devices. They are working on improving the basic understanding and developing new architectures for semitransparent and non-transparent solar cells and modules.

Low-power tunneling transistor for high-performance devices at low voltage Posted: 12 Dec 2013 01:03 PM PST A new type of transistor that could make possible fast and low-power computing devices for energy-constrained applications such as smart sensor networks, implantable medical electronics and ultra-mobile computing is feasible, according researchers. Called a near broken-gap tunnel field effect transistor, the new device uses the quantum mechanical tunneling of electrons through an ultra-thin energy barrier to provide high current at low voltage.
