Solar power is already one of the fastest growing sources of electricity on the planet, yet scientists say it is still only ...

Solar power has long been constrained by a supposedly unbreakable ceiling on how much sunlight a panel can turn into electricity. That barrier is now cracking as a new class of solar materials pushes ...

The research advanced the durability of perovskite solar cells without compromising their exceptional efficiency, moving closer to a practical, low-cost alternative to silicon-based photovoltaics.

Trina Solar says new certified results in perovskite-crystalline silicon tandem cells and modules demonstrate progress toward ...

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 ...

Researchers at the University of New South Wales (UNSW) School of Photovoltaic and Renewable Energy Engineering (SPREE) have filed patent protection and are working to scale production of a new class ...

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, ...

Sheet resistance, measured in ohms per square (Ω/ ), is a parameter that quantifies the resistance of thin conductive layers. In solar cells, it primarily influences the performance of the front ...
