The introduction of a nanometric germanium oxide layer drastically improved device performance and stability. As the global demand for clean energy accelerates, solar power continues to attract ...

Traditional solar panels usually use rigid silicon wafers anywhere from 120 to 200 micrometers thick. Researchers develop ...

Researchers at the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay have fabricated an inverted low-bandgap perovskite solar cell for applications in four-terminal (4T) perovskite-silicon tandem solar cells.

Cu2SnS3 (CTS) thin films have emerged as a promising class of absorber materials for thin film solar cells due to their earth‐abundant, non‐toxic constituents and favourable optical and electronic ...

Solar cells, devices that can generate electricity from sunlight, are already helping to reduce fossil fuel emissions in many ...
