Chalcogenide perovskites are materials that can be used for many applications. The ability to produce high-quality films of many other semiconductor families has paved the way for computer devices, ...

In the past, chalcogenide infrared (IR) glasses, also known as chalcogenides, were considered exotic materials owing to their limited demand. However, emerging use cases and a rising interest in ...

Nanoclusters, which consist of several or even thousands of atoms, represent an important intermediate state between microscopic atoms and macroscopic matter. A profound comprehension of the ...

For decades, silicon has been the backbone of the solar industry, but it's nearing its theoretical efficiency limit of 29.4%. To push beyond this cap, scientists are turning to tandem solar cells, ...

Imagine tires that charge a vehicle as it drives, streetlights powered by the rumble of traffic, or skyscrapers that generate electricity as the buildings naturally sway and shudder. These energy ...

According to new research, metal chalcogenide perovskites can be used as a thermoelectric material than can convert thermal energy from the sun to usable electric power. These materials, which can ...
