Japan-based technology company Sharp Corporation offers a range of space-qualified compound solar cells for use in low Earth orbit (LEO) satellites and other spacecraft. It recently exhibited its ...

Professor Yoke Khin Yap and his research group are improving the efficiency of solar cells one quantum dot at a time. × To sustainably power our digital future, the world needs more — and more ...

With energy prices still prone to sudden swings, more UK households are looking at solar as a way to cut bills and rely less on the grid. But once you start comparing the best solar panels, the next ...

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 ...

Korean researchers revealed that efficiency losses in heterojunction solar cells arise from two coexisting defect types – dangling bonds and weak silicon-silicon bonds. Their findings explain how ...

Higher-efficiency solar cells can generate more electricity from the same amount of sunlight.

Our research focuses on developing innovative materials that can improve solar cell technology. We specialize in creating new materials that can capture and transport solar energy more efficiently, ...

For industrial production, the perovskite layer must be applied to tandem solar cells over a large area and uniformly.

A vacuum-based process could make solar cells faster and cheaper to produce while delivering efficiency on surfaces used in ...
