Two-dimensional material shows promise for optoelectronics: LEDs, photovoltaic cells, and light
Team creates LEDs, photovoltaic cells, and light detectors using novel one-molecule-thick material. Researchers have used a novel material that's just a few atoms thick to create devices that can harness or emit light. This proof-of-concept could lead to ultrathin, lightweight, and flexible photovoltaic cells, light emitting diodes (LEDs), and other optoelectronic devices, they say.<img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/sciencedaily/~4/Qefl9WgfATM" height="1" width="1"/>
