Solar panels became a powerful alternative for renewable energy a few years ago. But as technology advances, new alternatives ...

New molecular architecture enables the natural formation of built-in p/n junctions essential for efficient ...

Traditional flat panels have a key limitation: they can only capture sunlight efficiently from one direction. This is where ...

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 ...

The research team at Australia's University of New South Wales (UNSW) has improved the performance of solar cells made from antimony chalcogenide, an emerging photovoltaic material regarded as a ...

A new generation of 3D-printed solar cells could let buildings generate power through colorful, semi-transparent windows ...

Japan-based technology company Sharp Corporation offers a range of space-qualified compound solar cells for use in low Earth orbit (LEO) satellites and other spacecraft. It recently exhibited its ...

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 ...

Leading US based module manufacturer SEG Solar has held a ceremony to mark the successful roll-out of its first high-efficiency N-type solar cell at its smart manufacturing plant in Batang, Indonesia.

P-type dye-sensitised solar cells (p-DSSCs) represent a promising class of photovoltaic devices that utilise p-type semiconductors – most commonly nickel oxide – as the photoactive electrode. These ...

UNSW researchers found that some POE encapsulants can trigger severe corrosion in TOPCon solar modules, causing up to 55% power loss under damp-heat conditions. Their study highlights that module ...
