This  editorial continues our highlights of the highest independently confirmed yearly efficiencies of mainstream solar cell technologies including silicon, perovskite and organic, and analyzes the ...

Commercial silicon-based solar cells have made significant improvements in efficiency over the past decade, increasing from around 15% efficiency in 2015 to just shy of 25% in 2025. Subscribe to our ...

UNSW researchers have developed an intrinsic-adjusted single-diode model that explicitly accounts for radiative and Auger ...

Researchers have developed a perovskite-organic tandem solar cell that achieves 26.4 percent efficiency. Unlike rigid silicon modules, the lightweight design can generate power on curved or flexible ...

It is not easy to bring new technologies from the laboratory to market. Researchers and companies face very different demands for new developments and do not always find common ground. Scientists at ...

Taiwan's Academia Sinica announced that a group of its researchers has developed a two-terminal (2T) perovskite-silicon tandem solar cell with a power conversion efficiency of 31.5%. “In the future, ...

Radiation testing indicates that solar cells composed of carbon-based, or organic, materials could be better than traditional silicon and gallium arsenide for producing electricity in the final ...
