Das Solar has achieved a world-record open-circuit voltage of 742 mV for an M10 n-type tunnel oxide passivated contact (TOPCon) solar cell, with a power conversion efficiency of 26.33%, according to ...

Scientists at Germany's Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems ISE have demonstrated a triple-junction solar cell with a perovskite-perovskite-silicon subcell configuration. They said the cell ...

In the race to make solar energy more practical amidst soaring gas prices and threats of climate catastrophe, a team of researchers is taking steps toward a more efficient, higher voltage solar cell.

Engineers have developed a new solar cell with a record voltage and (arguably) a record efficiency for its kind. The all-perovskite tandem solar cell uses two layers of perovskite that tap into ...

Silicon solar cells were supposed to be running out of headroom, yet a new device has pushed their performance to 27.81% ...

The company’s new scientific paper, published in Nature, reveals that its hybrid interdigitated back-contact (HIBC) solar cell achieved a record-breaking efficiency of 27.81%, marking a major step ...

Multiple research teams have produced solar cells that topple the long-awaited 30% efficiency milestone. In a pair of research papers published Thursday, two groups share the processes by which ...

UNSW researchers investigating the impact of electron irradiation on PERC and TOPCon solar cell performance have identified ...

Many battery-powered applications use very little power when idle and have short-duration operating periods. Thus, the total energy used is very small. It would be convenient to incorporate solar ...
