Perovskite solar cells shouldn’t work as well as they do—but they do. Scientists have now discovered that defects inside the ...

A collaboration between a team led by RASEI Fellow Mike McGehee at the University of Colorado Boulder and scientists at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), just published in the ...

Laboratory testing has revealed that some negatively-doped, “n-type” tunnel oxide passivated contact (TOPCon) and heterojunction (HJT) solar modules are susceptible to ultraviolet (UV) light-related ...

Musket balls that have been buried in soil for hundreds of years can be converted into a key ingredient for next-generation ...

According to Qcells, notice letters recipients are infringing on its laser-enhanced contact optimisation (LECO) technology. Image: QCells. Korean-owned solar manufacturer Hanwha Qcells has issued ...

Energy can never be created or destroyed. That's basic Physics 101. You simply cannot create energy out of thin air. Yet ...

To compete with established photovoltaic technologies, PSCs must demonstrate long operational lifetimes, spanning 20-25 years under real-world conditions to match the lifetimes of silicon PV. However, ...
