Free QuoteResearchers effectively converted tellurite glass, pictured here as part of a chip, into a light-energy harvester by using femtosecond laser light. Solar cells and glass are often both made from silicon.
Better optical designs and enhanced recovery of tellurium may boost the potential for large-scale energy production from thin-film cadmium telluride solar cells. For decades, the material associated with photovoltaic (PV) cells has been silicon.
For tellurite glass, as its structure was reformed, seeds consisting of clusters of tellurium atoms formed, and eventually grew into tellurium nanocrystals as the glass phase decomposed.
Tellurite glass is different and distinct from silica-based glasses. Tellurite's unique properties, including enhanced transparency in the mid-infrared region and higher solubility for rare-earth ions, already make it attractive for optical fibers and optical amplifiers.
However, by exposing the tellurite glass to a femtosecond laser, the researchers discovered the glass's inner structure was broken up into a state that allowed for reformation into new phases of the material.
