A research team led by Prof. Ge Ziyi from the Ningbo Institute of Materials Technology and Engineering (NIMTE) of the Chinese ...

Perovskite solar cells are inexpensive to produce and generate a high amount of electric power per surface area. However, ...

"Our approach provides a straightforward, effective way." Scientists use salt to deliver near-record results for new-age ...

Scientists have revealed how microscopic defects trigger catastrophic failure in perovskite solar cells. A research collaboration led by RASEI Fellow Mike McGehee at the Boulder, together with ...

Scientists from the University of New South Wales (UNSW) in Australia investigated the impact of UV-induced degradation (UVID) in solar cells based on tunnel oxide passivated contact (TOPCon) design.

Professor Yoke Khin Yap and his research group are improving the efficiency of solar cells one quantum dot at a time. × To sustainably power our digital future, the world needs more — and more ...

Novel design strategies provide a step towards more efficient and stable perovskite–perovskite–silicon solar cells ...

The tandem device is based on a bottom thin-film heterojunction cell that can bend and a top perovskite cell that can be manufactured with a low-temperature process to prevent damage. It achieved the ...

For years, the arguments against renewable power focused on its high costs. But as the price of wind and solar plunged, the arguments shifted. Suddenly, concerns about the waste left behind when solar ...

Modern consumer solar technology offers quite a bit of variety, from standard panel designs with silicon materials to thin-film alternatives made of cadmium. So, what's all this about perovskite solar ...

Beneath a maze of tubes, Leonardo Josué Lugo Salas focused intently on the postage stamp-sized piece of glass he was clutching between a pair of tweezers. Reaching his arm through a rubber glove and ...

Scientists have created a transparent solar coating that turns ordinary windows into clean energy generators without affecting clarity. Using cholesteric liquid crystal layers, the coating redirects ...
