Scientists at the University of Cambridge have discovered that electrons can be fired across solar cell materials in just 18 ...

Defect-filled lead-halide perovskites rival silicon solar cells because domain walls inside the material separate and guide charges. Researchers visualized these charge-transport networks using a ...

A new study reports the discovery of an entirely new stable, earth-abundant, high-performance material for solar absorbers -- the central part of a solar cell that turns light into electricity. While ...

A flexible perovskite-silicon tandem solar cell has reached a certified 29.88% power conversion efficiency, placing it among the highest recorded results for this class of device and bringing the ...

While they may appear to be insignificant, raindrops’ impact on surfaces can create measurable electrical signals when ...

Silfab Solar has ceased all production at its solar cell and panel manufacturing site in Fort Mill, South Carolina, after two separate chemical incidents ...

Researchers at Lehigh University in the United States developed a new thin-film solar cell absorber material that reportedly features an average photovoltaic absorption of 80% and an external quantum ...

Photovoltaic researchers at UNSW demonstrate best-ever results for emerging solar cell material antimony chalcogenide. UNSW engineers have made a major step forward in the development of a new type of ...

Solar power is already cheap and effective, and it’s taking on a larger role in supplying energy needs all over the world. The thing about humanity, though, is that we always want more! Too much, you ...

Perovskites are promising materials for solar cells. A layer of dipolar molecules at the perovskite surface improves the efficiency of these devices. Read the paper: All-perovskite tandem solar cells ...

In 2023, numerous research studies exploring photovoltaic material enhancements for increased solar cell efficiency were published in several journals. Some of these notable studies are discussed ...
