NUS scientists have developed a novel triple-junction perovskite/Si tandem solar cell that achieves a certified world-record power conversion efficiency of 27.1%. The new solar cell integrates a ...

A team at Fraunhofer ISE has created new imaging methods to measure losses in individual sub-cells of multi-junction solar cells based on perovskite-silicon and perovskite-perovskite-silicon ...

Solar power is already one of the fastest growing sources of electricity on the planet, yet scientists say it is still only ...

The Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems ISE has been conducting world-leading research on highly efficient III-V multi-junction solar cells for over 20 years. To further develop this ...

Sydney research team led by Professor Anita Ho-Baillie (centre) in the laboratories of the Sydney Nanoscience Hub, University of Sydney. A University of Sydney-led team has set a record for solar ...

The research advanced the durability of perovskite solar cells without compromising their exceptional efficiency, moving closer to a practical, low-cost alternative to silicon-based photovoltaics.

A new type of solar cell technology could dramatically boost overall performance -- without adding much cost. If the technology scales, it could cut the cost of the most efficient solar cells. Share ...

Nanotechnology enables the use of materials with unique optical, electrical, and thermal properties. These materials can be engineered to absorb sunlight more efficiently, reduce energy loss, and ...
