Researchers at Kyushu University and Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz have reported a quantum yield of roughly 130% in a ...

The singlet fission experiment captured energy with high efficiency. (Kyushu University) Scientists are always pushing the ...

A new solar breakthrough may overcome a long-standing efficiency barrier. Researchers used a “spin-flip” metal complex to capture and multiply energy from sunlight through singlet fission. The result ...

Energy can never be created or destroyed. That's basic Physics 101. You simply cannot create energy out of thin air. Yet ...

Silicon solar cells were supposed to be running out of headroom, yet a new device has pushed their performance to 27.81% efficiency and reset expectations for what a single-junction cell can do. That ...

Solar power plays a major role in efforts to reduce dependence on fossil fuels and address climate change. The Sun delivers an immense amount of ...

A group of researchers from China's Fujian Normal University and the University of Surrey in the United Kingdom has fabricated a carbon-based on antimony sulfoselenide (Sb2(S,Se)3) solar cell that ...

A team of researchers led by the University of Sydney has fabricated a triple-junction perovskite-perovskite-silicon tandem solar cell that achieved a power conversion efficiency of up to 27.06% and ...

What if the future of solar energy wasn’t just brighter but fundamentally redefined? Imagine a world where solar panels are not only more efficient but also cheaper, more durable, and adaptable to ...

A novel thin-film technology enables solar panels to generate electricity from both sunlight and raindrops.

Perovskite solar cells shouldn’t work as well as they do—but they do. Scientists have now discovered that defects inside the material actually help, creating networks that separate and guide electric ...
