A group of scientists at Zhejiang University in China has developed a perovskite-silicon tandem solar cell that utilizes textured silicon substrates to improve interface engineering between the top ...

Darth Vaders dark eyes inspired a new nanotechnology-based black silicon that makes solar cells more efficient. The resultant arms race is driving solar costs low.

To make these solar panels, Indian companies need PV cells—which are the small parts that convert sunlight into electricity. Since India doesn’t yet make enough of these cells on its own, it is ...

While most solar cells on the market today are based on silicon, energy engineers have recently been assessing the ...

Perovskite solar cells are inexpensive to produce and generate a high amount of electric power per surface area. However, ...
