Hyper‐Elastic Deformation via Martensitic Phase Transformation in Cadmium Telluride
Hyper-Elastic Deformation In article number 2302076, Lin Li, Feng Yan, Qi An, and co-workers show that superelastic deformation behavior, induced by martensitic transformations in CdTe materials, markedly enhances their deformability, demonstrating an excess of 36% hyper-elastic strain. This feature enables the panels to sustain structural integrity across varied configurations and stress conditions, potentially mitigating damage risks and enhancing durability in diverse installation environments, thus expanding the practical application spectrum of CdTe solar technology.
