Solar energy has long been a go-to solution for sustainability, but traditional panels have their limitations. They’re big, rigid, and, let’s be honest, not the most visually appealing addition to a ...

Solar power has long been seen as a clean alternative to fossil fuels. But its everyday use still faces hurdles. Traditional panels are bulky, stiff, and completely opaque. That makes them hard to fit ...

A new kind of ‘camera’ is poking at the invisible world of the human body – and it’s made from the same weird crystals that once shook up solar energy. Researchers at Northwestern University and ...

New data shows nearly 70 GW of new solar generating capacity is scheduled to come online across 2026 and 2027. That’s nearly a 49% jump over current operating capacity, and a huge boost for our clean ...

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 ...

These cells could be laminated onto various kinds of surfaces, such as the sails of a boat to provide power while at sea.

Perovskite solar cells are a high-efficiency, low-cost alternative to traditional silicon-based solar panels. With the perovskite solar cell industry expected to reach $1.2 billion by 2033, there’s ...

Photoluminescence testing complements EL by using light-induced excitation rather than electrical current to detect material-level defects, contamination, and performance variations in solar wafers ...

Professor Yoke Khin Yap and his research group are improving the efficiency of solar cells one quantum dot at a time. × To sustainably power our digital future, the world needs more — and more ...

– SCHOTT® Solar Glass exos provides enhanced radiation resistance and optical performance for simple silicon cells up to III-V multijunction satellite solar cells. – Jointly developed with ...

In a world dealing with environmental issues and energy shortages, the promise of clean, renewable energy from solar power is driving development of solar-cell technologies. This growth in the solar ...
