A Spanish-Finnish research team has fabricated an IBC solar cell with an ultrathin black silicon wafer with a thickness of 40 µm. The device is based on vanadium oxide and laser-processed ...
Explore the potential of perovskite solar cells as a cost-effective alternative to silicon panels for efficient energy.
Solar cells that combine traditional silicon with cutting-edge perovskites could push the efficiency of solar panels to new heights.
A team of researchers has discovered that tiny, ever-changing structures inside cutting-edge solar cell materials could be ...
This week saw some progress in that regard, with two separate reports of two-layer perovskite/silicon solar cells with efficiencies of well above 30 percent.
Functionally, perovskite solar panels aren't that different from other thin-film solar panels. When incorporated into a solar cell structure, these perovskites convert photons into electricity.
Combined, these factors sap the efficiency of perovskite solar cells and mean that none lasts nearly as long as a sheet of silicon. The new works tackle these issues from two very different ...
So what is the problem with silicon – it is odd, but the material is not as accessible as it might seem at first glance. If we take away the large deposits of silicon, we have to consider that in ...
