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 ...
Two-dimensional (2D) materials and nanomaterials have emerged as transformative candidates for next-generation photovoltaic (PV) and solar energy conversion ...
A group of researchers from the University of New South Wales and Chinese module manufacturer Jolywood has conducted a ...
UNSW and Jolywood studied the thermal stability of laser-assisted fired TOPCon solar cells during module fabrication and high-temperature stress, identifying hydrogen-related defect dynamics as the ...
Ph-C6, has been synthesized with the aim of enhancing the power conversion efficiency (PCE) of organic solar cells (OSCs). By integrating asymmetric phenylalkylamino side groups, TT-Ph-C6 demonstrates ...
Perovskites are promising materials for solar cells. A layer of dipolar molecules at the perovskite surface improves the ...
Kerry Breen is a news editor at CBSNews.com. A graduate of New York University's Arthur L. Carter School of Journalism, she previously worked at NBC News' TODAY Digital. She covers current events, ...
We present an efficient eigenmode solver to simulate finite-size photonic-crystal (PC) surface-emitting lasers. Instead of calculating the full eigenspectra, a number of modes with lowest modal losses ...
Organic solar cells are made from conductive polymers, which makes them cheap, light, and flexible. However, one drawback is that their efficiency lags behind the best silicon devices—but this may ...
