To be able to achieve that impressive percentage, AIST devised CIGS [...]
Artificial photosynthesis is based on the concept of a dye analogous to chlorophyll absorbing light and thus generating electrons which enter the conduction band of a high surface area semiconductor film and further move through an external circuit, thus converting light into “green” power.
They want to be the leading supplier of 3rd Generation Solar [...]
