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 ...

New semi-transparent solar cells use 3D-printed pillars to adjust color and light transmission without changing the solar ...

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

A new study highlights a semi-transparent, color-tunable solar cell designed to work in places traditional panels can't, like ...

Traditional solar panels usually use rigid silicon wafers anywhere from 120 to 200 micrometers thick. Researchers develop ...

Scientists at The University of Manchester have developed a method to make perovskite solar cell technology both highly ...

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 ...

The tandem device is based on a bottom organic cell that can achieve a remarkable power conversion efficiency of 17.9% and a high short-circuit current density of 28.60 mA cm2. Furthermore, it uses a ...

Chinese perovskite cell maker MicroQuanta Semiconductor has supplied its solar modules for what it claims to be the world's largest building-integrated photovoltaic (BIPV) project based on perovskite ...

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, ...

ZnSc 2 S 4 exhibits a direct bandgap and can emit light from orange to blue. Its composition can be chemically tuned to switch between n-type and p-type conduction over nine orders of magnitude, ...
