The research group led by Professor Martin Green has published Version 68 of the solar cell efficiency tables. There are 21 new results reported in the new version.

A team of scientists in China has developed a targeted passivation technique that significantly ...

Solar panels have become more efficient over the years, but even the best designs still lose a large fraction of the energy ...

Energy can never be created or destroyed. That's basic Physics 101. You simply cannot create energy out of thin air. Yet researchers at Kyushu University in Japan say they have developed a technology ...

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 ...

Chinese scientists have used a passivation method to create a highly stable perovskite-silicon solar cell with 33.33 percent ...

Perovskite solar cells offer much higher efficiency than silicon. Cambridge researchers have developed a far more stable perovskite structure, stacking ultra-thin layers at atomic precision to improve ...

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 ...

Researchers from the Photovoltaics and Thin-Film Electronics Laboratory (PV-Lab) in EPFL’s School of Engineering and CSEM have developed a new solar cell that combines exceptional voltage, high ...

Chinese researchers have demonstrated a single-step submicron structured surface texturing process that improved the absolute efficiency of a TOPCon solar cell by 1% through broadband anti-reflection ...
