Trees Used to Create Recyclable, Efficient Solar Cell

Tuesday, March 26, 2013 - 10:00 in Physics & Chemistry

Georgia Institute of Technology and Purdue University researchers have developed efficient solar cells using natural substrates derived from plants such as trees. Just as importantly, by fabricating them on cellulose nanocrystal (CNC) substrates, the solar cells can be quickly recycled in water at the end of their lifecycle.
