Sunny Record: Breakthrough for Hybrid Solar Cells

Sunny Record: Breakthrough for Hybrid Solar Cells: "Scientists at the Department of Microsystems Engineering (IMTEK) and the Freiburg Materials Research Center (FMF) have succeeded in developing a method for treating the surface of nanoparticles which greatly improves the efficiency of organic solar cells. The researchers were able to attain an efficiency of 2 percent by using so-called quantum dots composed of cadmium selenide."
