Researchers from the Qingdao Institute of Bioenergy and Bioprocess Technology (QIBEBT) in China have ...

A collaboration between a team led by RASEI Fellow Mike McGehee at the University of Colorado Boulder and scientists at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), just published in the ...

Solar power is getting cheaper and more powerful, but researchers are still working to make the next generation of solar panels reliable enough for large-scale use. A new study reports a promising ...

Laboratory testing has revealed that some negatively-doped, “n-type” tunnel oxide passivated contact (TOPCon) and heterojunction (HJT) solar modules are susceptible to ultraviolet (UV) light-related ...

Many new energy technologies look impressive in the laboratory but never become real products. Solar cells are a clear example. Scientists can achieve record performance under controlled conditions, ...

While the current PLI scheme covers the entire solar manufacturing chain, from upstream processes like polysilicon refining, ingot and wafer production to downstream segments such as solar cells and ...

Laser-assisted firing is a major breakthrough in solar cell technology because it can solve one of the key issues causing poor reliability in tunnel oxide passivated contact (TOPCon) solar cells, ...

Perovskite solar cells are one of the hottest topics in photovoltaics, because they are substantially more energy-efficient to produce than conventional silicon solar cells. Laboratory devices now ...

Up until the present, the various paintjobs of our phones have existed primarily as a means of personalization. In the near future, they could well be the way that our phones are charged. A new study ...

The research advanced the durability of perovskite solar cells without compromising their exceptional efficiency, moving closer to a practical, low-cost alternative to silicon-based photovoltaics.

An international team of researchers demonstrated perovskite solar cells treated with a molecular passivator based on π-conjugated terpyridine Lewis-base molecules that achieved 25.24% power ...
