Still, some scientists say perovskite could significantly improve solar energy.

尽管如此，一些科学家表示钙钛矿可以提升太阳。

There are still durability and other problems to work out, but several companies expect to have perovskite panels on the market this year.

耐久性等问题还需要攻克，但一些公司已经打算今在市场出售这类电池板了。

An array of tiny specks of perovskites could therefore work like a grid of LEDs in a display screen.

因此，钙钛矿微斑点阵列可以像显示屏网格状LED一样工作。

The advantage of the perovskite solar cell is that it can be lightweight and flexible.

用钙钛矿制成太阳电池，其优势在于：质量很轻，灵活度高。

A study Dr Hou carried out in collaboration with teams from Britain and France, which was published recently in Science, showed that perovskite screens made in this way were efficient light emitters able to produce sharp, bright images.

侯博士与英国和法国研究团队合作进行一项研究最近在《科学》杂志发表，该研究表明，以这种方式制造钙钛矿屏幕是高效发光体，够产生清晰、明亮图像。

Thanks to new experi-mineral called perovskite.

这要归功于这种叫做钙钛矿新矿物。

We can use perovskite cells on the plastic of the building, on the roofs of the building, on the roofs of the cars, on the electronic devices, small electronic devices.

我们可以在建筑塑料表面使用钙钛矿电池，在建筑物屋顶，在汽车顶，在电子设，型电子设（都可以用）。

A new kind of flexible solar cell made with a mineral called perovskite can go almost anywhere, says physicist Olga Malinkiewicz.

有一种新型柔性太阳电池是由一种名作钙钛矿矿物质构成，这类电池没有安装位置限制，物理学家奥尔加·马林凯维奇如是说道。

The original perovskite, calcium titanium oxide, is a mineral discovered in the Ural mountains in 1839 and named after Count Lev Perovski, a Russian mineralogist.

最初钙钛矿，钙钛氧化物，是1839在乌拉尔山脉发现一种矿物，以俄罗斯矿物学家列夫·钙夫斯基伯爵命名。

But perovskite have other exciting advantages too.

而钙钛矿还有其他令人兴奋优点。

Malinkiewicz developed a way to print perovskite panels like an inkjet printer.

马林凯维奇发明了一种印刷钙钛矿面板方法，就像喷墨打印机一样。

In as much as anything can be considered unbreakable, perovskite screens just might be that, reckons Dr Hou-and they might be used not just for phones, but also for products ranging from televisions and computers to lighting.

侯博士认为，钙钛矿结构屏幕几乎摔不破，它们可不仅用于手机，还用于电视机、电脑和照明等产品。

Malinkiewicz says perovskite has become a favorite among solar panel researchers.

马林凯维奇说，钙钛矿在太阳电池板研究领域炙手可热。

But perovskite may be able to help with that last problem because it could make solar panels more efficient.

但钙钛矿可有助于解决最后问题，因为它可以使太阳电池板更有效率。

This is the perovskite material completely synthesized from Earth abundant elements.

这是完全由地球丰富元素合成钙钛矿材料。

Oxford PV, a British company, is bringing some of the first perovskite solar cells to market.

英国牛津光伏公司将首批钙钛矿型太阳电池推向市场。

Much of the interest in perovskites comes because those which combine metal atoms with chlorine, bromine or iodine (members of a group of elements called halogens) are semiconductors.

人们对钙钛矿兴趣很大，因为那些将金属原子与氯、溴或碘（卤素元素组成员）结合在一起就是半导体。

Dr Hou and his colleagues at the University of Queensland, in Australia, are among a number of researchers working on a group of materials called perovskites.

澳大利亚昆士兰大学侯博士和他同事们是钙钛矿材料众多研究者之一。

The researchers say that when combined with moon glass, just one kilogram of perovskites brought from Earth could be used to create 400 square meters of solar panels, roughly the size of a basketball court.

研究人员表示， 结合面玻璃使用时，从地球携带一公斤钙钛矿材料即可制造出约400平方米太阳电池板，面积大致相当于一个篮球场。

Fan and colleagues used a curved aluminum oxide membrane, studded with nanosize sensors made of a light-sensitive material called a perovskite, to mimic that architecture in their synthetic eyeball.

Fan 和他同事使用了一种弯曲氧化铝膜，面镶嵌着由一种叫做钙钛矿光敏材料制成纳米级传感器，以在他们合成眼球中模拟这种结构。
