Latest launch includes ‘DarkSat’ prototype to reduce reflection from fleets of broadband Internet satellites.
Semiconductors known as halide perovskites have remarkable optoelectronic properties, but their structural instability limits practical applications. A solution has been found that involves squeezing the compounds’ crystal lattices.
