1. The National Institute for Materials Science (NIMS), the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory in the UK and the University of Oxford in the UK have experimentally confirmed that a cupric oxide exhibits ...

For solar energy to become environmentally friendly and cost effective, the two main components of 'heterojunction' solar cells ― the n- and p-type layers ― need to be fabricated from nontoxic, ...

Researchers have provided the first evidence that engineered nanoparticles are able to accumulate within plants and damage their DNA. Under laboratory conditions, cupric oxide nanoparticles have the ...

Copper (II) oxide is a higher oxide of copper and belongs to the monoclinic crystal system. It occurs as a black solid with an ionic structure that melts above 1200°C with some loss of oxygen. It is ...

Psst… Wanna make a canning jar diode? A tennis ball triode? How about a semiconductor transistor? Or do you just enjoy sitting back and following along an ...

WE report here work in progress on the measurement of the solubility of metals and metal oxides in pure water, in the temperature range 50°–550° C and at pressures up to 400 bars. The isobaric ...

(Nanowerk News) By tailoring the interface between the two sections of a solar cell, A*STAR researchers have produced a high-performance solar cell from the abundant and cheap materials of copper (II) ...

Viktor Podolskiy, Ph.D., Department of Physics and Applied Physics, UMass Lowell Andriy Danylov, Ph.D., Department of Physics and Applied Physics, UMass Lowell Abstract: The optical properties of ...

The record efficiency was achieved by engineering the cell with reduced copper(II) oxide (CuO) and copper (Cu) impurities in the thin-film deposition. It showed an open-circuit voltage of 1.13 V, a ...
