In a previous article, I wrote that if you were to start a solar business, the Nordic region would not be the obvious choice, and yet the challenges of doing so have created a thriving sector. But ...

Researchers at The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) have developed a multi-source co-evaporation recipe ...

Solar panels can help cut your energy bills – here’s how they generate power, what happens to the electricity you don’t use, ...

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 ...

Defect-filled lead-halide perovskites rival silicon solar cells because domain walls inside the material separate and guide charges. Researchers visualized these charge-transport networks using a ...

While they may appear to be insignificant, raindrops’ impact on surfaces can create measurable electrical signals when ...

For as long as we’ve been capturing the sun’s rays, the clouds have been the enemy. When the sky turns gray and the first ...

It is not easy to bring new technologies from the laboratory to market. Researchers and companies face very different demands ...

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 ...

The transparent four-terminal perovskite solar cell employs an ion-modulated spiro-MeOTAD hole transport layer, which passivates interfacial defects, enhances carrier dynamics, and allows for a ...

Future lunar bases could be powered by solar cells made on-site from melted moon dust. Building items on the moon, using materials that are already there, would be more practical than shipping them ...
