Featured on the cover of the current issue of ACS Applied Energy Materials<\/a> is an image created by ECE undergrad Gary Qian and graduate student Botong Qiu. Qian and Qiu\u2019s image serves as an illustration of the industrialized process of utilizing 3-D printed molds to create a unique solar cell arrangement that could be incorporated into building infrastructures. The accompanying article, written by assistant professor Susanna Thon<\/a>, lead author Yida Lin, and co-authors Garrett Ung, Botong Qiu, and Gary Qian, describes a process for creating a new type of solar cell based on inexpensive materials with the goal of mass scale production.<\/p>\n

The article, titled Integrated Concentrators for Scalable High-Power Generation from Colloidal Quantum Dot Solar Cells<\/a>, describes an integrated lensing scheme that results in a \u201c20-fold increase in photocurrent and power\u201d that would also allow for substantial \u201copen circuit voltage enhancements\u201d compared to solar cells without the integrated lenses.<\/p>\n
