The “Spin” Around Perovskite Solar Cells Has Only Just Begun
Spin control and chiral structures are front and center in the next generation of lower-costing, higher-performing perovskite solar cells.

Rental scooters, especially those dropped off and left on the sidewalks in cities, have been a bit of a touch-and-go proposition over the last few years.

Collections of electric scooters distributed in urban centers require recharging and maintenance, so there are a number of independent contractor roles available to service them. These new jobs are supposedly part of the ‘gig economy’.
Spin, a San Francisco electric bicycle (e-bike) mobility company, has a good idea. How about doing away with stations and introduce station-less e-bikes to the public?
Kiosk-free bikesharing services have been a thing outside of the US (in China, in particular) for a while now, but they have yet to make any headway here for some reason. A new startup known as Spin is apparently aiming to address this, with the launch of a new bikesharing concept along the lines of the Chinese ones in San Francisco.
