A study conducted by Penn State University researchers has revealed that organic solar cells ...

PV is breaking new ground with a video series that reveals the entire process of making perovskite solar cells, from bare substrate to finished, tested modules. For the first time, viewers can see ...

A cluster of recent laboratory advances in ultra-thin solar cells suggests that lightweight, flexible photovoltaic devices may be able to move beyond niche prototypes if researchers can solve ...

For solar cell manufacturers, a close eye on consistently high quality has never been more important. Emerging technologies and processes bring the opportunity for stronger performance, but the ...

Solar power continues to grow—accounting for most new capacity added to U.S. electric grids in 2024—but the mid-1950s technology most often used to capture the sun's energy comes with environmental ...

Despite their clear efficiency advantages, high-resistivity, lightly doped silicon wafers have seen limited adoption ...

According to the report’s authors, LECO is now used in the production of around one-quarter of TOPCon cells. Image: Trina Solar. A new study has found that the laser-enhanced contact optimisation ...

The additive introduced into the solution for preparing the photoactive layer enhances Marangoni flow, thereby offsetting capillary flow caused by changes in the substrate’s surface energy due to ...

The global photovoltaic (PV) industry is entering a phase defined less by headline capacity additions and more by incremental but compounding improvements in efficiency, reliability, and ...
