Organic solar cells are made from conductive polymers, which makes them cheap, light, and flexible. However, one drawback is ...

Researchers in China have developed a dipolar passivation method that reduces defects and improves charge transport in solar cells based on narrow-bandgap tin lead perovskite. The approach has enabled ...

Many battery-powered applications use very little power when idle and have short-duration operating periods. Thus, the total energy used is very small. It would be convenient to incorporate solar ...

Earlier in 2025, Chinese solar manufacturer Longi announced it had built the world's most efficient solar cell. The hybrid ...

Silicon solar cells were supposed to be running out of headroom, yet a new device has pushed their performance to 27.81% ...

Das Solar has achieved a world-record open-circuit voltage of 742 mV for an M10 n-type tunnel oxide passivated contact (TOPCon) solar cell, with a power conversion efficiency of 26.33%, according to ...

This breakthrough lays a solid foundation for the commercial development of flexible silicon-based tandem cells in ...

UNSW researchers investigating the impact of electron irradiation on PERC and TOPCon solar cell performance have identified ...

Tin sulfide (SnS) solar cells have shown immense promise in the rush to develop more environmentally friendly thin-film solar cells. Yet for years SnS solar cells have struggled to achieve a high ...

Some people like to say outer space is a starry frontier of vast emptiness, but clearly they’ve never tried launching a satellite. Sixty-five years after Sputnik, some 8,000 low-Earth orbit (LEO) ...
