Researchers have identified a class of quantum materials, called topological semimetals, that can split water into hydrogen fuel using nothing but sunlight, sidestepping the expensive platinum-based ...

Scientists from the University of New South Wales (UNSW) in Australia investigated the impact of UV-induced degradation (UVID) in solar cells based on tunnel oxide passivated contact (TOPCon) design.

Scientists in Spain have developed an amorphous-silicon solar cell that could be used in both transparent photovoltaics and tandem applications. The device reportedly achieves notable efficiency ...

Solar cells are subjected to a lot of harmful ultraviolet light, as they're typically placed for maximum sunlight exposure. A new eco-friendly coating could help protect them from those UV rays, and ...
