Joachim Reichert, Johannes Barth, Alexander Holleitner (Technische Universitaet Muenchen, Clusters of Excellence MAP and NIM), and Itai Carmeli (Tel Aviv University), proudly present their newly developed method that allows measurements of photocurrents of a single functionalized photosynthetic protein system. This system can be incorporated in artificial photovoltaic device architectures while preserving their biomolecular functional properties. […]

To make thin film solar cells have a higher efficiency than any of the previously experimented models, some Boston College researchers propose using nano-scale solar cells inspired by the working principle of coaxial cables. There's a so-called "thick & thin" issue in making thin solar cells, which states that a solar cell has to be thick enough to collect light in sufficient amounts, and at the same time it needs to be thin enough to extract current from it.
