A vacuum-based process could make solar cells faster and cheaper to produce while delivering efficiency on surfaces used in ...

One of the most interesting updates in the solar energy space comes from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem (via EES Solar), where researchers have developed 3D-printed, semi-transparent, flexible ...

Researchers in Sweden developed a bifacial chalcoprite solar cell using a titanium-doped indium oxide (ITiO) back contact, achieving 68% bifaciality. The device is able to maintain strong front-side ...

Perovskite solar cells shouldn’t work as well as they do—but they do. Scientists have now discovered that defects inside the material actually help, creating networks that separate and guide electric ...

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 ...

The polymer solar cell is able to retain 97% of its performance after 2,000 hours in air. By blending small-molecule acceptors into polymeric matrices, the research team improved molecular packing, ...

Singapore, led by Annalisa Bruno, have created perovskite solar cells that are around 50 times thinner than conventional ...

Halide perovskites have long been considered a low-cost alternative to silicon in solar cells, ...

Imagine a car whose windows and sunroof can help top up its battery while parked under the sun, or a pair of smart glasses whose lenses can harvest light to power built-in electronics.
