Researchers in China have developed an inverted perovskite solar cell approaching the 27% efficiency threshold. The device incorporates a specially designed self-assembled monolayer that passivates ...

In recent years, perovskite has emerged as a promising solution for cheaper, more efficient solar energy. This advanced synthetic material is made from crystals that mimic the naturally occurring ...

Renewable sources, including solar, wind, and hydro, now produce roughly a quarter of America's electricity, and when combined with wind, make up 98% of new energy capacity in the US. But how do solar ...

Researchers at the University of Arkansas and the University of Michigan have reported the first use of ultra-low power ...

A Spanish research team demonstrated a broadband antireflective coating for gallium arsenide solar cells. Based on thermally oxidized gallium nanoparticles, the nanostructured coating reduced ...

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 ...

Perovskite solar cells are a promising alternative to traditional silicon solar panels but have poor durability. Professor Ted Sargent, Research associate professor Bin Chen, Postdoctoral fellows ...

Qcells has announced plans to reduce pay and working hours for one-third of its 3,000 employees in the US state of Georgia.

Solar power is already cheap and effective, and it’s taking on a larger role in supplying energy needs all over the world. The thing about humanity, though, is that we always want more! Too much, you ...

Solar panel manufacturer Qcells revealed on Friday that it would furlough one-third of its workers at its two plants in Georgia. The 1,000 employees will ...
