???????Solar panels, also known as photovoltaics, rely on semiconductor devices, or solar cells, to convert energy from the sun into electricity.
According to the United Nations, less than a quarter of all U.S. electronic waste gets recycled. In 2021 alone, global e-waste surged at 57.5 million tons, and only 17.4% of that was recycled.
Berkeley Lab scientists developed a lead-free solar material that could benefit thin-film perovskites and simplify solar cell manufacturing.
A semiconductor laser developed by University of California, Berkeley (UC Berkeley) researchers accomplishes an elusive goal in the field of optics: t
