This probably has the clearest simple explanation of the shockley-queisser limit I've heard. Please keep making videos!

I studied materials science and I think that your videos are among the best on youtube for a general audience. You might even inspire some people to go on to study MatSci! Keep up the good work.

Thanks for your kind words! Before I started this channel, I noticed a lot of popular youtube channels that explain scientific or technical subjects in a way that's understandable to a broader audience. There are already many great channels like this for math, physics, biology, etc., so I wanted to spread the word and hopefully popularize materials science in the same way!

wonderful, thank you. Great explanation also on the periodic table relationship. I noticed the II-VI pairs feature elements with a full D orbitals (Zn and Cd), the way it was explained to me is elements in the D group tend to have 'full pockets full of electrons' and are therefore able to give up large numbers of electrons. Another group with even 'fuller pockets' of electrons are the F group. Lawrencium, Lutecium, etc. It seems like Mercury Hg and Copernicum would also be good candidates due to their position with full D and F orbitals, if paired with a VI group, that they would have a plethora of electrons to give up and circulate. This isn't my field of study, just something I've been reading about lately and your video made me wonder why these aren't used. Very thought-provoking thank you for it!

HgCdTe2 is a material used for infrared photodiodes that detect the 3.5um to 7um thermal infrared energy. It does work extremely well if you add a little indium to it for an electron multiplier in beta voltaic nuclear batteries. A multi keV energy electron is converted to many double digit eV electrons, and these excite the final collector of diamond GaN or SiC.

I for one would like to see more funding for this new chemical element "Solarium" with the potential it offers!

So the evil goolagtube now disallows downloading and watching their propaganda?
