A flexible solar “skin” that could be used to generate power on homes, cars and phones is a step closer to development after the technology was used to break a world record for electricity conversion, researchers say. Engineers at the University of Queensland have been working with nanoparticles known as quantum dots that pass electrons...Read More

Researchers from City University of Hong Kong (CityU) have created a new type of generator that uses rain to create electricity, and it works. The generator produces a high voltage from a single drop of rain: more than 140 volts even when falling from 15 cm or higher. This is what it takes to light up 100...Read More
