Stanford University scientists have developed a solar cell with 24 hours of power generation via an embedded thermoelectric generator, which extracts power from the radiative cooler at night. Exxtra daytime power from excess heating comes from the cell itself. Researchers from Stanford University have designed a solar cell based on radiative cooling that purportedly produces electricity at night. Radiative cooling occurs when the surface of an object absorbs less radiation from the atmosphere and emits more. As a result, the surface loses heat to the outer space and a cooling effect can be achieved ...Den vollständigen Artikel lesen ...
