Ever take a look at a solar panel system and think to yourself: I could build that. The truth is that you probably can. Building a cheap, solar panel system is a fun project to take on that if done ...

To make these solar panels, Indian companies need PV cells—which are the small parts that convert sunlight into electricity. Since India doesn’t yet make enough of these cells on its own, it is ...

For solar panels, wringing every drop of energy from as many photons as possible is imperative. This goal has sent chemistry, materials science and electronic engineering researchers on a quest to ...

Various perovskite semiconductors for solar cells can be produced in glove boxes in the lab. Dr Artem Musiienko (right) heads the research group ‘Optoelectronic Materials and Photovoltaic Development’ ...

An international research team led by Huazhong University of Science and Technology was able to improve (Sn-Pb) single junction tin lead perovskite solar cells, as well as all-perovskite tandem and ...

The tandem device is based on a bottom thin-film heterojunction cell that can bend and a top perovskite cell that can be manufactured with a low-temperature process to prevent damage. It achieved the ...

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 ...
