Perovskite-silicon tandem solar cells are considered a key technology for photovoltaics. Because of their design, they use ...

Silicon solar cells were supposed to be running out of headroom, yet a new device has pushed their performance to 27.81% efficiency and reset expectations for what a single-junction cell can do. That ...

Solar panels and snow are often framed as natural enemies, but the physics of how panels generate electricity tells a more nuanced story. In cold, bright conditions, modern photovoltaic systems can ...

Researchers have developed a perovskite-organic tandem solar cell that achieves 26.4 percent efficiency. Unlike rigid silicon modules, the lightweight design can generate power on curved or flexible ...

Perovskites may sound like perogies or piroshkis, but no high-carb-cheese-and-potato-flavor-pocket can do what they do. They’re minerals that can do the same party trick as many of your favorite ...

With new organic photovoltaic modules (OPV), its's more than just a purple solar panel option that we are getting, ensuring ...

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 ...

Perovskite solar cells are a promising alternative to traditional silicon solar panels but have poor durability. Professor Ted Sargent, Research associate professor Bin Chen, Postdoctoral fellows ...

Schott introduced Solar Glass exos, a new cover glass developed with AZUR Space for next-generation satellite solar cells with ESA and DLR support ...
