Solar cells face significant challenges when deployed in outer space, where extremes in the environment decrease the efficiency and longevity they enjoy back on Earth. University of Toledo physicists ...

Optical transparency was achieved via 3D-printed micro-patterned pillar structures and a solvent-free monomer. Color tunability was controlled by the thickness of the top transparent electrode, ...

Solar cells, devices that convert sunlight into electricity, are helping to reduce greenhouse gas emissions worldwide, ...

Cu2SnS3 (CTS) thin films have emerged as a promising class of absorber materials for thin film solar cells due to their earth‐abundant, non‐toxic constituents and favourable optical and electronic ...

Researchers in Australia have achieved a breakthrough in an emerging solar cell material that ...

In general, solar PV deposited on glass is significantly more efficient than thin film, but this is the price you pay for off-world deployments. Paul Warley, CEO of Colorado-based Ascent Solar, told ...

Half cell solar panels, which divide conventional full-sized cells into two electrically independent halves, have moved from ...

Solar power is already a cleaner energy source than traditional dirty fuels, but a team of researchers from Tohoku University has made a breakthrough that could make solar even cleaner, according to ...

Researchers from KAUST, TU Delft, and LMU Munich have improved the performance of monolithic perovskite-silicon tandem solar cells by modifying the physical structure at the front of the bottom ...

UNSW engineers have made a major step forward in the development of a new type of solar cell that could help make future ...

The article 'Semitransparent colour tunable perovskite solar cells with 3D pillar structure' explains that the colour tuning ...
