Though the sun produces more energy than we would ever need on Earth, current ...

Solar cells face significant challenges when deployed in outer space, where extremes in the environment decrease the efficiency and longevity they enjoy back on Earth. University of Toledo physicists ...

Half cell solar panels, which divide conventional full-sized cells into two electrically independent halves, have moved from ...

Solar power is already a cleaner energy source than traditional dirty fuels, but a team of researchers from Tohoku University has made a breakthrough that could make solar even cleaner, according to ...

Solar power has shifted from niche technology to a central pillar of the global energy system, and the pace of change is only ...

Scientists in Switzerland have discovered a new method to enhance perovskite solar cell performance by securing rubidium (Rb) within the material, thus significantly lowering energy loss and ...

Researchers from KAUST, TU Delft, and LMU Munich have improved the performance of monolithic perovskite-silicon tandem solar cells by modifying the physical structure at the front of the bottom ...

Optical transparency was achieved via 3D-printed micro-patterned pillar structures and a solvent-free monomer. Color tunability was controlled by the thickness of the top transparent electrode, ...

UNSW engineers have made a major step forward in the development of a new type of solar cell that could help make future ...

A new publication from Opto-Electronic Science; DOI 10.29026/oes.2023.230011 overviews Solar cell-based hybrid energy harvesters. Energy harvesting stands out as a vital player in our modern world.

Cu2SnS3 (CTS) thin films have emerged as a promising class of absorber materials for thin film solar cells due to their earth‐abundant, non‐toxic constituents and favourable optical and electronic ...
