Stripe-like nanoscale structural phase separation in superconducting BaPb(1-x)Bi(x)O3.

abstract：:An effective way to improve polymer solar cell efficiency is to use a tandem structure, as a broader part of the spectrum of solar radiation is used and the thermalization loss of photon energy is minimized. In the past, the lack of high-performance low-bandgap polymers was the major limiting factor for achieving high...
