Researchers have come up with a new way to make perovskite films for solar cells. The technique is especially well suited to making ultra-thin films that are semi-transparent, which could be useful ...

What if perovskite solar cells could skip solvents and still deliver 27.2% efficiency? A vacuum process moves them closer to ...

Inverted perovskite solar cells offer strong potential for scalable, low-cost solar power, but a hidden interface inside the ...

Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent six days a week. Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. Solar energy has made major strides in recent years. Panel prices ...

The additive introduced into the solution for preparing the photoactive layer enhances Marangoni flow, thereby offsetting capillary flow caused by changes in the substrate’s surface energy due to ...

It is not easy to bring new technologies from the laboratory to market. Researchers and companies face very different demands for new developments and do not always find common ground. Scientists at ...

Many new energy technologies look impressive in the laboratory but never become real products. Solar cells are a clear example. Scientists can achieve record performance under controlled conditions, ...

Researchers at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem have created semi-transparent, color-tunable solar cells. Interestingly, these can be 3D-printed onto windows, building façades, and flexible surfaces ...

Bert Thin Films has developed a copper paste for solar cell manufacturing that keeps the copper from oxidizing during the air-firing process while at the same time avoiding it to make direct contact ...
