NUS researchers successfully integrated a new anion, cyanate, into a perovskite structure, which was a key breakthrough in fabricating new triple-junction perovskite/Si tandem solar cells. Credit: National University of SingaporeResearchers at the National University of Singapore (NUS) have developed a novel triple-junction perovskite/Si tandem solar cell that can achieve a certified world-record power conversion efficiency of 27.1 percent across a solar energy absorption area of 1 sq cm. This achievement marks the…

While Ford’s E-Transit work vans are busy racking up sales and electrifying the world’s commercial van fleets, Ford’s 1400 hp electric SuperVan is racking up records and electrifying race tracks around the world! We covered a previous iteration of Ford’s electric SuperVan technology demonstrator last summer, when “version 4.2” was set to take on the Pike’s Peak International Hill Climb (PPIHC). That version of the van packed 1400 hp and produced a whopping 4,400 lbs. of aerodynamic downforce at 150 mph.…

A groundbreaking study by UC Santa Barbara and McGill University has revealed that eukaryotic organisms, including plants, animals, and fungi, were already diverse and complex 1.64 billion years ago, challenging previous assumptions about their evolution. This research, based on newly discovered microfossils, indicates that the diversification of eukaryotes occurred much earlier and under a wider range of environmental conditions than previously thought, offering new insights into the origins and development of complex…

Researchers at the National Institute of Information and Communications Technology (NICT) in Japan have achieved greater than 1 Petabit per second (Pb/s) data transfers using 4-core fiber with standard cladding. The key advance, facilitating this new transfer speed record, is the transmission system's support for optical bandwidth exceeding 20 THz. This beefy bandwidth comes largely thanks to the application of wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) technology and the deployment of the experimental S-band.NICT's…

Nearly 60 years after her death, the entertainment industry’s attempts to resurrect Marilyn Monroe continue apace. Earlier this week, Andy Warhol’s 1964 silk-screen portrait of the actor was sold at auction for $195m – the highest sum ever paid for a work of 20th-century art.The previous week, Kim Kardashian turned up to the Met Gala in New York in the $4.8m crystal-covered nude silk gown Monroe wore to serenade John F Kennedy at his 45th birthday party.It was deemed a less-than-successful tribute. While Warhol’s…
