UCLA Engineers Invent Photovoltaic Polarizers, Now Devices Could Be Powered By It Self
Photovoltaic polarizers could make self-charging that makes the dreams come true. UCLA engineers allows LCDs to recycle energy, with photovoltaic polarizers, devices could be powered by sunlight, own backlight. This is most worse thing to losing the charge of smartphone or laptop running down when we have no access to an electrical outlet. But the UCLA Henry Samueli School of Engineering and Applied Science could finally help solve the problem. According to the researchers, the traditional LCD polarization process loses as much as 75 percent of light energy something that eats around 80 to 90 percent of the device’s power. By using polarizing organic photovoltaic cells, the LCD-packing gizmo can recycle its own lost backlight energy, keeping itself charged for longer. Checkout more details in the press release bellow.
