Perovskite solar cells are a high-efficiency, low-cost alternative to traditional silicon-based solar panels. With the perovskite solar cell industry expected to reach $1.2 billion by 2033, there’s ...

A research team has produced a flexible perovskite-silicon tandem solar cell that converts 33.6% of sunlight into electricity ...

Crystalline-silicon solar panels are efficient, reliable, and dominate the solar-panel market. However, new third-gen solar technology could do what c-Si solar panels cannot, including flexible, ...

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

In HJT cells, an n-type crystalline silicon (c-Si) wafer is sandwiched between intrinsic amorphous silicon (i-a-Si:H) layers. The front is coated with n-type microcrystalline silicon (μc-Si:H), while ...

Three years ago, I outlined why a 100-GW fab dedicated to solar cell production in the United States could be pivotal to the country re-establishing ...

A large proportion of all solar cells come from China. But research and production continue in Germany. Is there still something possible?

The 1cm² cells, pictured, achieved a record-breaking 27.06% power conversion efficiency. Image: University of Sydney. Scientists from the University of Sydney have created what they claim is the ...

Researchers have developed a solar cell system that uses mirrors to concentrate solar energy. In addition to electricity, it produces heat for a plant that will capture carbon from industrial ...

TU Delft researchers developed a novel hexagonal microtextured glass that enhances light scattering up to 50%, improving optical performance in thin-film silicon solar cells. The technology shows ...
