Light can hit a lead halide perovskite crystal that is anything but pristine and still end up as useful electric current.

Imagine two homes on the same street, with the same-sized roofs, both fitted with solar panels. Yet one home consistently generates more electricity than the other. The difference comes down to solar ...

The race to build the world’s most efficient solar cell is no longer a theoretical contest inside physics labs, it is a high‑stakes engineering sprint that will shape how quickly the global energy ...

Despite being riddled with impurities and defects, solution-processed lead-halide perovskites are surprisingly efficient at ...

The use of solar cells, devices that can convert sunlight into electricity, has grown exponentially over the past decades.

< ISTA physicists explain the exceptional energy-harvesting efficiency of perovskites. Assistant Profe ... Copyright: © ISTA ...

Researchers at NREL found that UV exposure can cause significant, partly non-recoverable degradation in TOPCon solar cells, with strong cell-to-cell and intra-cell variability linked to passivation ...

A research team in Italy has tested the performance of semitransparent wide-bandgap perovskite solar cells in underwater (UW) environments and has found that, at a 0.5–1 cm depth, the devices achieve ...

Danish researchers have analyzed fundamental material properties of selenium solar cells and have found their potential is higher than generally believed. They used carrier-resolved photo-Hall ...

The ranch real estate experts at James Bigley Ranches explain the benefits of installing solar panels on ranches, including ...
