Major leap towards graphene for solar cells: Graphene retains its properties even when coated with silicon

Tuesday, October 8, 2013 - 11:01 in Physics & Chemistry

Dr. Marc Gluba and Professor Dr. Norbert Nickel of the HZB Institute for Silicon Photovoltaics have shown that graphene retains its impressive set of properties when it is coated with a thin silicon film. These findings have paved the way for entirely new possibilities to use in thin-film photovoltaics.
