Safer and more environmentally friendly indoor solar panels could soon help power electronics in homes and offices. Read more.

SYDNEY, May 1 (Bernama-Xinhua) — Researchers in Australia have developed a safer method to produce high-efficiency indoor solar panels without toxic materials, potentially paving the way for wider use in homes and offices, reported Xinhua. Chemical engineers at Australia’s University of Queensland (UQ) have developed a new fabrication method that eliminates the need for toxic lead and other hazardous solvents in perovskite indoor solar panels, said a UQ statement released on Friday. “Halide perovskites are an emerging technology that could replace silicon, offering much higher efficiencies and commercial potential,” said UQ’s Lyu Miaoqiang, co-author of the study published in ACS […]
