Korean researchers detect hidden semiconductor defects 1,000× more sensitively, boosting efficiency, lifespan, and design ...

Researchers have made a key advance in thin-film solar cell technology by rethinking one of its most problematic regions: the interface between the light-absorbing material and the metal contact.

Perovskite solar cells offer much higher efficiency than silicon. Cambridge researchers have developed a far more stable perovskite structure, stacking ultra-thin layers at atomic precision to improve ...

Scientists have developed a more heat-resistant material that keeps next-generation solar cells running more efficiently to enable durable, high-output solar panels. (Nanowerk News) Solar panels made ...

Using the mask-and-plate copper metallization technique, scientists at the German research center fabricated a 1.21 cm² perovskite–silicon tandem solar cell featuring a heterojunction bottom device.

ABSTRACT: Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have emerged as one of the most promising candidates for future renewable energy solutions due to their low cost, ease of fabrication, and potential for high ...

China’s largest producers of polysilicon for solar panels have signaled a turnaround in the industry’s fortunes after steep losses over the past couple of years. In something of a victory for the ...

ABSTRACT: This study uses TCAD numerical simulation to evaluate how key absorber parameters in Cu(In, Ga)Se2 (CIGS) thin-film solar cells influence device performance, with the objective of ...

Venture capitalists are among investors putting $75 million into a US startup’s push to install home solar and batteries for an electricity subscription — just as the residential market shrinks.
