2D Perovskites May Make Better LEDs and Solar Cells
April 15, 2021 | 1 Comment
Open Image…Save ImageOpen Image (using #TmpD/ia)… University of Surrey engineers’ innovative analysis of two-dimensional (2D) materials could boost the development of next-generation solar cells and LEDs. Three-dimensional perovskites have proved themselves remarkably successful materials for LED devices and solar panels in the past decade. One key issue with these materials, however, is their stability, with device performance decreasing quicker than […]

Imperfect Polymer LEDs Are More Efficient
November 4, 2020 | Leave a Comment
Physicists in China, led by Yadong Wang at Hebei North University, found that higher-than-expected efficiency can be reached through interactions between triplet excitons, and impurities embedded in the LED polymer. Molecular dynamics simulations have shown that the mysteriously high efficiency of polymer LEDs arises from interactions between triplet excitons in their polymer chains, and unpaired […]
