Crystalline-silicon solar panels are efficient, reliable, and dominate the solar-panel market. However, new third-gen solar technology could do what c-Si solar panels cannot, including flexible, ...

Lead halide perovskite solar cells (LHPSCs) have rapidly gained prominence in the field of photovoltaics, boasting impressive power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) of up to 26.1% in single-junction ...

Nanotechnology enables the use of materials with unique optical, electrical, and thermal properties. These materials can be engineered to absorb sunlight more efficiently, reduce energy loss, and ...

We designed six Cu 2 SrSnS 4 solar cells in superstate configuration based on chalcogenide and oxide-based hole transport layers (HTLs), namely Sb 2 S 3, MoS 2, Cu 3 BiS 3, NiO, CuAlO 2, and Cu 2 O, ...

Solar energy has long been considered to have great potential and solar panels based on silicon have been on the market for over 30 years. But first-generation silicon solar panels are at the end of ...

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

Someday, large-scale solar power stations in space could beam electricity to the surface of the moon, the earth and other planets, decreasing our dependence on a dwindling fossil-fuel supply.

A research group is experimenting with solar cells made with alternative materials, which could help the world meet its energy needs Juan-Pablo Correa-Baena shows a finished solar chip made with ...

A new model shows how transport resistance limits solar cell efficiency and how better fill factor predictions could help us develop more powerful photovoltaics One light bulb turned on (Courtesy: ...
