HOT EES communication
The recombination of charges before they reach the electrode in a solar cell has been identified as one of the key reasons for a loss of efficiency in these systems. Tracey Clarke and coworkers have developed a new switch-based time resolved technique for studying the recombination process. This allowed the researchers to overcome the resistance-dependence limitations of typical time-of-flight experiments.
