A recent study provides evidence to help solve one of the key hurdles to large-scale manufacture of next-generation perovskite solar cells. Subscribe to our newsletter for the latest sci-tech news ...

Laboratory testing has revealed that some negatively-doped, “n-type” tunnel oxide passivated contact (TOPCon) and heterojunction (HJT) solar modules are susceptible to ultraviolet (UV) light-related ...

A new study has revealed a surprisingly simple way to improve one of the biggest weaknesses of next-generation solar cells.

Perovskite solar cells are a promising alternative to traditional silicon solar panels but have poor durability. Professor Ted Sargent, Research associate professor Bin Chen, Postdoctoral fellows ...

Perovskite solar cells are poised to be the next big photovoltaic technology, after silicon. But they usually don’t last more than a couple of years. They also contain toxic lead, which portends heaps ...

A collaboration between a team led by RASEI Fellow Mike McGehee at the University of Colorado Boulder and scientists at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), just published in the ...
