At 39.7% efficiency for a multi-junction solar cell, researchers at the Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems ISE in Freiburg have exceeded their own European record of 37.6% which they achieved just a short time ago. III-V semiconductor multi-junction solar cells are used in photovoltaic concentrator technology for solar power stations.
“We have improved the contact structures of our solar cells,” says Frank Dimroth, Head of the III-V – Epitaxy and Solar Cells Group at Fraunhofer ISE. “As a result, using the same semiconductor structures, we now achieve the higher efficiency when converting sunlight into electricity.”

Here's how to cut your power bill up to 75%:
ReplyDeleteWant to know how to easily produce all of the renewable energy you could ever want right at home?
And you’ll be able to make your home totally immune from power failures, blackouts, and energy grid failures…
so even if everyone else in your area (or even the whole country) loses power…you won’t.
HERE'S HOW: DIY HOME ENERGY
