New opportunities for the design of more efficient solar cells
01/27/2020Singlet fission - the generation of two excited states from one of greater energy - has become a promising strategy to prevent the loss of energy in solar cells.
Singlet fission is a process that has been observed with efficiencies close to 200% in...
Life after death (of neurons)
01/22/2020An international study led by Ikerbasque researchers of Achucarro and the UPV/EHU demonstrates that the microglia acts as a sensor of death of newborn cells, contributing to the balance between life and death.
The first intrinsic magnetic topological insulator discovered
01/13/2020Materials called topological insulators are those that do not let the electric current in its volume, but on its surface. Unlike the usual conductors, that is, metals, the current circulating on the surface of a topological insulator does not suffer any loss of energy.
