It is not easy to bring new technologies from the laboratory to market. Researchers and companies face very different demands ...

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 ...

Researchers at The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) have developed a multi-source co-evaporation recipe ...

Silicon heterojunction solar cells combine crystalline silicon substrates with thin amorphous silicon layers in order to harness the complementary benefits of both materials. The crystalline substrate ...

Dye-sensitised solar cells (DSSCs) have emerged as a promising photovoltaic technology due to their cost-effective materials, simplified fabrication processes and attractive aesthetic versatility. By ...

The lab-scale, near-white heterojunction solar cell uses nanoclay-based scattering layers combined with dielectric multilayer films to preserve power conversion efficiency while enhancing visual ...

Experts in Lithuania are working across multiple dimensions to improve inorganic perovskite solar cells, which have great potential as next-generation sun-catchers. It's part of ongoing innovations ...

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

Recently, perovskite solar cells have emerged as a promising alternative to traditional silicon panels, offering potentially higher efficiency and lower production costs. With the increased demand for ...

Solar power continues to grow—accounting for most new capacity added to U.S. electric grids in 2024—but the mid-1950s technology most often used to capture the sun's energy comes with environmental ...
