Solar energy is fast becoming one of the most important sources of electricity generation in the US, with 7% of Americans using it to power their homes. However, while solar power affords a viable and ...

Scientists from the University of New South Wales (UNSW) in Australia have investigated how effectively the laser-assisted firing process developed by Chinese solar module manufacturer Jolywood, the ...

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 ...

Nanotechnology enables the use of materials with unique optical, electrical, and thermal properties. These materials can be engineered to absorb sunlight more efficiently, reduce energy loss, and ...

Laser-assisted firing is a major breakthrough in solar cell technology because it can solve one of the key issues causing poor reliability in tunnel oxide passivated contact (TOPCon) solar cells, ...

A team of researchers in China has demonstrated a novel dual-solvent process in 4-terminal carbon CsPbBr3 perovskite solar cells that achieve 10.18% power conversion efficiency. They have also built a ...
