New research utilizing data from NASA's Parker Solar Probe has provided the first direct evidence of a phenomenon known as ...

High-efficiency solar cells: Why India should not miss the bus A host of labs, especially at the IITs, are tapping perovskites’ unique ability to step up solar energy production By M Ramesh ...

The current exponential growth of solar electricity technologies toward consumer-oriented applications, as in building- or vehicle-integrated photovoltaics (B/VIPV), is calling for improved solar ...

Additionally, a team at MIT is exploring transparent solar cell technology using organic materials that absorb infrared and ultraviolet light while allowing visible light to pass through.

That would mean this cell is more efficient than the best residential solar panel on the market. But if you're shopping for solar panels for your home, you probably shouldn't be concerned about it.

Nonfullerene Self-Assembled Monolayers As Electron-Selective Contacts for n-i-p Perovskite Solar Cells. ACS Energy Letters, 2024; 9 (4): 1682 DOI: 10.1021/acsenergylett.4c00306 ...

By comparison, a single solar panel weighs 40 pounds, and homes often have at least 15 panels installed. What they did — To construct their solar cells, the researchers combined a mix of high ...

Conventional silicon photovoltaic (PV) cells, which supply more than 95% of the world’s solar electricity, contain brittle crystalline silicon wafers that are typically 150–200 μm thick.

Chinese researchers have developed a new type of solar cell using perovskite, which is more efficient than the current silicon-based cells They have managed to overcome stability issues that ...

Their small-area perovskite stacked cells achieved a conversion efficiency of 28 per cent last June, as certified by the internationally authoritative Solar Cell Efficiency Tables, surpassing ...
