⚡The "energy traps" in organic photovoltaics — spin-triplet excitons — have long been lost as heat, unable to generate electricity. #CityUHK Professor Alex Jen's team has broken a decade-long bottleneck, “turned waste into treasure” by recycling these excitons into usable charge carriers, achieving 20.5% power conversion efficiency! Two breakthroughs: 🔬 Triplet excitons re-dissociate into free charge carriers 📈 Lab efficiency has surpassed 21%, paving the way for next-gen photovoltaics Published in Nature, bringing new hope for clean energy! 🌿 🔗 Read more: go.cityu.hk/sy2jmq
