New solid-state material converts sunlight into higher-energy UV light
SMRTR summary
Kyushu University researchers have developed a solid-state material that converts visible sunlight into UV light, achieving 1.9% efficiency — enough to run on natural sunlight alone. The breakthrough, 14 years in the making, could enable solar-powered air purification, 3D printing, and photocatalysis using inexpensive, easily synthesized materials.
