Article Title: Photovoltaic Wire Derived from a Graphene Composite Fiber Achieving an 8.45% Energy Conversion Efficiency Authors: Zhibin Yang, Hao Sun, Tao Chen, Longbin Qiu, Yongfeng Luo, Huisheng Peng Journal: ANGEWANDTE CHEMIE INTERNATIONAL EDITION, 2013, 52, 7545–7548 DOI: 10.1002/anie.201301776 Wired for light: Novel wire-shaped photovoltaic devices have been developed from graphene/Pt composite fibers. The high flexibility, mechanical strength, and electrical conductivity of graphene composite fibers resulted in a maximum energy conversion efficiency of 8.45%, which is much higher than that of other wire-shaped photovoltaic devices.
