Physicists explain the remarkable energy-harvesting efficiency of perovskite solar cells
Light can hit a lead halide perovskite crystal that is anything but pristine and still end up as useful electric current. That mismatch has bothered solar researchers for more than a decade. Silicon ...
Solar energy technology has taken another major step forward as researchers develop a new way to make perovskite solar cells more efficient and stable. A team from the Qingdao Institute of Bioenergy ...
A research team led by Prof. Chenkai Sun at Zhengzhou University has developed a groundbreaking low-cost polymer material for organic solar cells (OSCs), achieving unprecedented efficiency and ...
Perovskite solar cells offer much higher efficiency than silicon. Cambridge researchers have developed a far more stable perovskite structure, stacking ultra-thin layers at atomic precision to improve ...

Record 27% efficiency: China’s back-contact solar cells break barriers with silicon wafers
Despite their clear efficiency advantages, high-resistivity, lightly doped silicon wafers have seen limited adoption ...
Germany’s Forschungszentrum Jülich has announced a world-record efficiency of 23.08% for a silver-free heterojunction (HJT) solar cell that is fully metallized with copper (Cu). The cell reportedly ...
What if the future of solar energy wasn’t just brighter but fundamentally redefined? Imagine a world where solar panels are not only more efficient but also cheaper, more durable, and adaptable to ...
Scientists at the Nanjing University of Posts and Telecommunications in China have fabricated a kesterite (CZTSSe) solar module prototype that can achieve a power conversion efficiency of 10.1%. The ...
