Imagine a display that harvests ambient light when it is not actively in use, offsetting some of its own energy consumption. Materials physics shows that this is possible; the same semiconductor ...

Perovskite solar cells are a rapidly advancing photovoltaic technology that has seen a dramatic rise in power conversion ...

Researchers said the breakthrough "paves the way for electronics powered by the ambient light already present in our lives." ...

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

Energy can never be created or destroyed. That's basic Physics 101. You simply cannot create energy out of thin air. Yet researchers at Kyushu University in Japan say they have developed a technology ...

Targeted surface treatment improves the molecular contact and increases the efficiency and stability of perovskite solar cells.

A group of researchers led by China's Lingnan University has fabricated an inverted perovskite solar cell through what they called a self-assembled monolayer (SAM) stabilization strategy. Inverted ...

A research team from the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay has demonstrated an atomic layer deposition (ALD) method within a lower temperature process to apply a buffering layer of tin oxide (SnOx ...

Molecularly engineered ultrathin films enhance efficiency and stability in perovskite solar cells by aligning energy levels precisely, offering an alternative to conventional electron transport layers ...

Runergy’s latest TOPCon cell efficiency record was verified by the Institute for Solar Energy Research Hamelin (ISFH) in Germany. Image: Runergy. Chinese solar manufacturer Runergy has reported that ...
