Research at RIT on perovskite solar cells led to a successful mission where a cell was flown on a SpaceX rocket with no ...

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, ...

Researchers from Germany's Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems (Fraunhofer ISE) have developed a new procedure for the precise and traceable spectral adjustment of LED-based solar simulators ...

Solar Team Eindhoven, the student-led engineering group known for building solar-powered vehicles, has presented a ...

A Japanese consortium is piloting agrivoltaics using film-type perovskite solar cells over rice paddies to study energy generation alongside crop production. The three-year project will assess impacts ...

Perovskite solar cells are among the most promising technologies for making solar power cheaper and more efficient. Working ...

More than 100 companies in China, led by CATL and BYD, are mass producing thin, light-weight perovskite solar cells, reports the Nikkei. Last year, UtmoLight started up what is intended to be a 1GW ...

The 1cm² cells, pictured, achieved a record-breaking 27.06% power conversion efficiency. Image: University of Sydney. Scientists from the University of Sydney have created what they claim is the ...

In a study published in Nature, researchers at Linköping University have developed a method to recycle all parts of a solar cell repeatedly without environmentally hazardous solvents. The recycled ...

Researchers in South Korea report solving a conundrum in solar energy in which increasing efficiency shortens lifespan, while extending lifespan lowers efficiency. The team at KAIST (Korea Advanced ...
