Scientists at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) have constructed a low-cost, nanoscale composite hybrid thermoelectric material by wrapping a polymer that conducts electricity around a nanorod of tellurium—a metal coupled with cadmium in today’s most cost-effective solar cells. See, Joseph P.

As the V OC of the presented c-Si cells is only ∼600 mV, four cells need to be connected in series to achieve stable water splitting performance. We demonstrate in this study that, thanks to their high V OC , three series-connected SHJ cells can already stably drive the water splitting reaction at unprecedented SHE. Schüttauf et al.
