Long before perovskite solar cells began smashing efficiency records and transforming the future of clean energy, their ...

Perovskites are promising materials for solar cells. A layer of dipolar molecules at the perovskite surface improves the ...

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 ...

Perovskite solar cells can be made not only more robust but also more efficient, scalable and cheaper to manufacture by ...

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 ...

Ubiquitous Energy and Michigan State University researchers have created a fully transparent solar concentrator, which could turn any window or sheet of glass (like your smartphone's screen) into a ...

More than a decade ago, Northwestern chemists and materials scientists reported in Nature the first solid-state solar cell based on a halide perovskite semiconductor — an advance that ultimately ...

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 ...

A research team in Italy has tested the performance of semitransparent wide-bandgap perovskite solar cells in underwater (UW) environments and has found that, at a 0.5–1 cm depth, the devices achieve ...

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