How do organic solar cells work on the inside? The answer lies in structures far too small to see—and difficult to access ...

Perovskite solar cells shouldn’t work as well as they do—but they do. Scientists have now discovered that defects inside the ...

A new solar breakthrough may overcome a long-standing efficiency barrier. Researchers used a “spin-flip” metal complex to capture and multiply energy from sunlight through singlet fission. The result ...

Scientists are always pushing the boundaries of solar cell efficiency – how much of the available sunshine gets turned into ...

Professor Yoke Khin Yap and his research group are improving the efficiency of solar cells one quantum dot at a time. × To sustainably power our digital future, the world needs more — and more ...

Materials research suffers from trial-and-error synthesis and fabrication, while the resulting numerical datasets fail to ...

Musket balls that have been buried in soil for hundreds of years can be converted into a key ingredient for next-generation ...

Energy can never be created or destroyed. That's basic Physics 101. You simply cannot create energy out of thin air. Yet ...

A research team based in China and the United States has developed electroactive polymer zwitterions to modify zinc oxide interlayers in organic solar cells. Their work was found to passivate defects ...

Researchers have developed a perovskite-organic tandem solar cell that achieves 26.4 percent efficiency. Unlike rigid silicon modules, the lightweight design can generate power on curved or flexible ...

The plant will produce N-Type PV cells to meet growing demand for locally manufactured products. Image: Boviet Solar. Solar manufacturer Boviet Solar has completed exterior construction work on its ...
