Researchers design a TENG and perovskite solar cell that generates electricity from both sunlight and falling raindrops

Researchers from Soochow University, Xi'an Jiaotong-Liverpool University and Egypt's National Research Centre have developed a novel approach for making an all-weather solar cell that is triggered by both sunlight and falling raindrops.

Solar cell also generates electricity from raindrops on rainy days image

They designed the solar cell by integrating a triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG) and perovskite solar cells to harvest raindrop energy and solar energy efficiently to provide a distributed energy source.

Researchers describe and explain room-temperature superfluorescence in hybrid perovskites

Researchers from North Carolina State University and their collaborators have reported room-temperature superfluorescence in hybrid perovskite thin films and explained its origin.

The team has shown that the semiconducting perovskites that exhibit superfluorescence at room temperature do so due to built-in thermal "shock absorbers" which protect dipoles within the material from thermal interference.
