Your household gadgets could soon be battery-free — scientists create tiny solar cells that can be powered by indoor light

An array of personal and home devices could one day function battery-free following the development of pioneering new solar technology. These new solar cells are capable of harvesting energy from indoor light. Researchers said the discovery has broad applications and could enable consumers to power devices such as keyboards, alarms and sensors using only indoor ambient light. In the study, published April 30 in the journal Advanced Functional Materials, researchers used the perovskite to gather...
