  • Sharp just announced a new record in solar cell conversion efficiency.
  • The new material is a high-efficiency crystalline compound called indium-gallium-arsenide which assisted in bumping the  record from previous 31.5% to 35.8% efficiency.
  • Well done Sharp, wonder who will push it over 40%, any ideas?
