Researchers in Lithuania have increased tandem perovskite solar cell efficiency to more than 29 ...

Energy can never be created or destroyed. That's basic Physics 101. You simply cannot create energy out of thin air. Yet researchers at Kyushu University in Japan say they have developed a technology ...

Perovskite solar cells shouldn’t work as well as they do—but they do. Scientists have now discovered that defects inside the material actually help, creating networks that separate and guide electric ...

Although the efficiency of organic solar cells has now risen to more than 20%, there are physical limits that make it difficult to further increase their performance. A research team from Linköping ...

Australian researchers have started applying lessons from baking to better understand how to improve tandem solar cell ...

The polymer solar cell is able to retain 97% of its performance after 2,000 hours in air. By blending small-molecule acceptors into polymeric matrices, the research team improved molecular packing, ...

A promising solar-cell architecture, in which two layers of perovskite semiconductors are stacked on silicon, is making strides towards achieving its full potential. Read the paper: Triple-1 junction ...

UNSW Sydney researchers have uncovered a new way to improve next-gen solar cell material by making sure its ingredients ...

Canadian researchers proposed a laminate-free solar module using polycarbonate instead of EVA and glass. The new encapsulation technique reportedly enables easy disassembly, reuse of solar cells, and ...
