New Molecule Boosts Efficiency and Stability of Perovskite Solar Cells

A recent Science study shows that the synthetic molecule CPMAC, developed through an international collaboration with KAUST, significantly boosts the energy efficiency and lifespan of perovskite solar cells. CPMAC is an ionic salt derived from buckminsterfullerene (C60), a carbon-based material with 60 atoms. While C60 has helped achieve record energy efficiencies in perovskite solar cells,

Only 9 Ounces a Week: How Much Meat You Can Eat Sustainably

We can sustainably consume up to 255 grams (9 ounces) of meat per week—specifically poultry and pork. Beef, however, poses a bigger problem: even small amounts exceed environmental limits, according to a study published in Nature Food by researchers at the Technical University of Denmark (DTU). Lead author Caroline H. Gebara, a postdoc at DTU

Advancing OLEDs: New Spectroscopy Boosts Lifespan

High-resolution, full-color displays—like those in foldable smartphones and ultrathin TVs—depend on organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). OLEDs are gaining popularity due to their flexibility, self-illumination, light weight, slim design, high contrast, and low power consumption. An OLED consists of several ultrathin organic layers placed between two electrodes, each with a distinct function. When voltage is applied,

New Method Detects Nanoplastics In Body Fluids Using Optofluidics And Raman Spectroscopy

Microplastics and even tinier nanoplastics can enter the human body through different pathways, such as consumption of food or inhalation. While a significant portion is expelled from the body, some particles persist in organs, the bloodstream, and other bodily fluids. The Nano-VISION project, launched two years ago with BRAVE Analytics, explored the potential implications of
