Power output gains for photovoltaic technology have been accomplished recently by process tweaking, which are becoming expensive. In addition, c-Si cell efficiency is nearing thermodynamic limits. Thus there is a real need to look for simple but alternative approaches to improve efficiency that are cost effective, give higher return on ...
It's been a mystery for more than half a century: why, in the short distance from the Sun's surface to its corona, or outer atmosphere, does the temperature leap from a few thousand to a few million degrees? The answer might lie in hot jets of plasma erupting from the Sun's ...
