QUT researchers use human hair snippets gathered from Brisbane barber to create carbon dots and improve stability of perovskite solar cells.

Date Time Carbon dots from human hair boost solar cells QUT researchers have used carbon dots, created from human hair waste sourced from a Brisbane barbershop, to create a kind of “armour” to improve the performance of cutting-edge solar technology. In a study published in the Journal of Materials Chemistry A, the researchers led by Professor Hongxia Wang in collaboration with Associate Professor Prashant Sonar of QUT’s Centre for Materials Science showed the carbon nanodots could be u...
