Can a new technique for capturing 'hot' electrons make solar cells more efficient?

A new way of extracting quantitative information from state-of-the-art single molecule experiments has been developed by physicists at the University of Bath. Using this quantitative information, the researchers will be able to probe the ultra-fast physics of “hot” electrons on surfaces—the same physics that governs and limits the efficacy of silicon-based solar cells.
