Chilean researchers convert UV rays into visible light

The Atacama Desert is one of the regions with the highest ultraviolet radiation on the planet, according to scientific research. Until now, a large part of that energy has been lost because UV radiation is less exploitable by conventional solar panels. A group of experts from SERC Chile hopes to reverse this by capturing UV rays and transforming them into light […]
