Researchers have developed a solar cell system that uses mirrors to concentrate solar energy. In addition to electricity, it ...

UNSW researchers have developed an intrinsic-adjusted single-diode model that explicitly accounts for radiative and Auger recombination, improving I–V curve accuracy and reducing root mean square ...

Korea University researchers have developed a machine-learning framework that predicts solar cell efficiency from wafer quality, enabling early wafer screening and optimized production paths. Using ...

Researchers affiliated with King’s College London have published a new modeling study showing that space-based solar power ...

The use of solar cells, devices that can convert sunlight into electricity, has grown exponentially over the past decades.

Three years ago, I outlined why a 100-GW fab dedicated to solar cell production in the United States could be pivotal to the country re-establishing ...

Patents have been filed for an innovative silicon solar cell coating that could increase efficiency, reduce heat, and extend panel lifetimes using singlet fission, according to pv magazine.

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 ...
