Solar cells, devices that can convert sunlight into electricity, are now widely used in many countries and are contributing ...

One of the hindrances to large-scale solar adoption, especially in cities, is where to install the chunky panels. Rooftops?

Imagine a car whose windows and sunroof can help top up its battery while parked under the sun, or a pair of smart glasses whose lenses can harvest light to power built-in electronics.

Perovskite solar cells are a high-efficiency, low-cost alternative to traditional silicon-based solar panels. With the perovskite solar cell industry expected to reach $1.2 billion by 2033, there’s ...

In a new scientific paper, the Chinese solar manufacturer explained that the 27.81%-efficient hybrid interdigitated back-contact cell it unveiled in April is based on passivated tunneling contacts and ...

A team of Chinese scientists has developed a new passivation strategy that significantly improves both the efficiency and ...

Chinese solar module maker JinkoSolar has set a new world record for n-type TOPCon solar cell efficiency, reaching 27.79%. The achievement was independently verified by Germany’s Institute for Solar ...

The module achieved a full-panel conversion efficiency of 29.2% in testing by Germany’s TÜV SÜD and is designed for mass ...

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 ...

A vacuum-based process could make solar cells faster and cheaper to produce while delivering efficiency on surfaces used in ...
