Researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy’s National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) have developed a breakthrough in energy-efficient phototransistors. Such devices could eventually help computers process visual information more like the human brain and be used as sensors in things like self-driving vehicles. The structures rely on a new type of semiconductor — metal-halide perovskites […]
