A research team at Osaka University in Japan has developed green light wavelength-selective organic solar cells (OSCs) that transmit blue and red light necessary for crop growth and use green light, which contributes only a little to photosynthesis, for power generation.
If this was efficient enough you could use them to shade plants to keep the summer heat down while also giving them full light. Hopefully it’s feasible.
Incredible!
Transmits, as in let’s it pass through, right? Like window tint being rated as xx% visible light transmission (VLT)?
lets* it pass through
I swear, auto-correct intentionally picks the wrong one every time. I know because my error is not using enough apostrophes
As written in the article, letting through wavelengths other than green. So, yes.
