New 'zentropy theory' based on quantum mechanics could unlock seemingly impossible electronic devices made with transparent ...

A group of physicists from Russia, Sweden, and the U.S. has demonstrated a highly unusual optical effect: They managed to "virtually" absorb light using a material that has no light-absorbing capacity ...

Neutral atoms were formed just a few hundred thousand years after the Big Bang. The very first stars began ionizing those atoms once again, but it took hundreds of millions of years of forming stars ...

Scientists in Spain have developed an amorphous-silicon solar cell that could be used in both transparent photovoltaics and tandem applications. The device reportedly achieves notable efficiency ...
