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 ...

Electrons can be "kicked across" solar materials at almost the fastest speed nature allows, scientists have discovered, ...

Scientists at the University of Cambridge have discovered that electrons can be fired across solar cell materials in just 18 ...

A new model shows how transport resistance limits solar cell efficiency and how better fill factor predictions could help us develop more powerful photovoltaics One light bulb turned on (Courtesy: ...

Researchers at the University of Cambridge have discovered that molecular vibrations can act like a catapult, flinging ...

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 ...

The development of clean and low-cost solar photovoltaic technology is crucial for the global transition toward carbon ...

Scientists at Japan’s National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science & Technology (AIST) have set ...

Despite being riddled with impurities and defects, solution-processed lead-halide perovskites are surprisingly efficient at converting solar energy into electricity. Their efficiency is approaching ...

In a study published in Nature, researchers at Linköping University have developed a method to recycle all parts of a solar cell repeatedly without environmentally hazardous solvents. The recycled ...

In a world dealing with environmental issues and energy shortages, the promise of clean, renewable energy from solar power is driving development of solar-cell technologies. This growth in the solar ...
