Learn how to build a simple solar cell at home using copper tape, plastic cups, and water. This step-by-step science ...

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 ...

A study carried out at the Federal University of ABC (UFABC), in the state of São Paulo, Brazil, presents a new way to mitigate the rapid degradation of perovskite solar cells. The problem, which ...

At a recent solar energy trade show, the first thing anyone would note is that solar cells are cheaper than ever before. Perhaps second, is that solar vendors had all sorts of solar panels. There were ...

Perovskite solar cells, often called PeSCs, are changing the way energy is captured—especially indoors. Unlike the rigid and heavy silicon panels fixed to rooftops, these thin and flexible materials ...

A team of researchers at the National University of Singapore has discovered a method for improving the durability of perovskite-silicon tandem solar cells, helping to unlock the potential of this ...

The Korea Institute of Energy Research (KIER) announced it achieved a power conversion efficiency of 23.64% for a tandem solar cell based on a top perovskite device and a bottom cell based on copper, ...

The previous solar efficiency record has now been broken, and this one could have ...
