China has quietly pulled off a feat that solar engineers have chased for years, pushing a new cell design to record efficiency by hiding its most important features beneath the surface. Instead of ...

Researchers in China have unveiled a new way to significantly improve the efficiency and ...

Half cell solar panels, which divide conventional full-sized cells into two electrically independent halves, have moved from ...

Scheme showing part of a singlet fission-sensitized silicon solar cell. Absorption of a high-energy photon by the tetracene layer produces a singlet exciton. This singlet exciton undergoes singlet ...

Sheet resistance, measured in ohms per square (Ω/ ), is a parameter that quantifies the resistance of thin conductive layers. In solar cells, it primarily influences the performance of the front ...

Chinese solar module maker Huasun claims to have achieved a power conversion efficiency of 34.02% for a 1 cm² tandem solar cell based on a perovskite top cell and a silicon heterojunction (HJT) bottom ...

An international research team has conducted an extensive review of all back-contact (BC) solar cell types in an effort to accelerate their commercial development. The scientists grouped the cell ...

Crystalline-silicon solar panels are efficient, reliable, and dominate the solar-panel market. However, new third-gen solar technology could do what c-Si solar panels cannot, including flexible, ...
