Researchers in Australia have developed an algorithm that accurately calculates the size and density of quantum dots needed to boost solar panels to maximum efficiency.
Researchers at Monash University in Australia, which is a member of the Australian Research Council's ARC Centre of Excellence ...
Quantum dots (QDs) are semiconductor materials at the nanoscale (~2-10 nm). Due to their small size, quantum dots exhibit quantum confinement effects as well as size-dependent electrical and optical properties. Since the discovery of cadmium-based QDs in the 1980s, a variety of cadmium- and ...
