Chinese scientists have pushed perovskite tandem solar cells past the critical 30 percent efficiency ...

Solar power is one of the world’s most important clean energy sources, and scientists are constantly searching for ways to ...

Solar panels need sunlight, not heat – so what happens to your home’s energy generation when temperatures soar?

Imagine a car whose windows and sunroof can help top up its battery while parked under the sun, or a pair of smart glasses whose lenses can harvest light to power built-in electronics.

High-Efficiency Solar Panels: It will now be possible to generate more solar energy using fewer panels. Scientists have ...

Scientists in Singapore have developed ultrathin solar cells that could one day turn car ...

Perovskite solar cells are a promising alternative to traditional silicon solar panels but have poor durability. Professor Ted Sargent, Research associate professor Bin Chen, Postdoctoral fellows ...

How do organic solar cells work on the inside? The answer lies in structures far too small to see—and difficult to access even with advanced techniques. So far, researchers have relied mainly on X-ray ...

Researchers have developed a perovskite-organic tandem solar cell that achieves 26.4 percent efficiency. Unlike rigid silicon modules, the lightweight design can generate power on curved or flexible ...

A team of scientists from Korea University, the University of Toledo, and Seoul National ...

Researchers at ICMS in Seville have developed a hybrid perovskite solar cell that generates electricity from both sunlight and raindrops, using the photovoltaic and triboelectric effects. A ...
