Engineers develop underwater solar cells designed for deep-sea monitoring
Researchers at Yunnan University and Southwest United Graduate School have demonstrated functional underwater solar cells operating at a depth of 10 meters (33 feet) in the South China Sea.
Writing Science, Sep 11 (EFE).- Solar cells provide green energy on land, but solar energy is more difficult to take advantage of under water, as the intensity of light decreases rapidly. However, a team of Chinese researchers has managed to make it work 10 meters deep. Solar cells could [...] The entry Create solar cells that operate ten meters below the surface of the ocean was first published in HolaNews.
