New solar cells could power devices from indoor light
Mihaela Măncilă
An international team led by UCL researchers has developed durable new solar cells capable of efficiently harvesting energy from indoor light, meaning devices such as keyboards, remote controls, alarms and sensors could soon be battery free. The team used a material called perovskite which is increasingly used in outdoor solar panels and, unlike traditional silicon-based solar panels, has potential to be used indoors as well as its composition can be adjusted to better absorb the specific
