Unveiling a Strategy for Tuning Bandgap Material Properties for High Performance
Engineers have recently developed a new strategy for creating bandgap materials with desired properties, such as large energy bandgaps and high mobility. This new strategy involves a combination of advanced computational techniques and experiments. By simulating the behavior of electrons in materials with different compositions, researchers are able to identify materials with the desired properties. Experiments then confirm the simulated results. This approach has enabled the discovery of promising materials that could be used in a variety of applications, such as high-efficiency solar cells and energy-storage devices.
