Solar panels made from silicon already adorn rooftops and vast fields around the world—but they are reaching their performance limits. Researchers are now pairing silicon with a promising material ...

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 ...

The two-terminal perovskite–silicon tandem solar cell was fabricated through a chemical polishing method that selectively removes residual lead(II)iodide from the perorvskite film in the top cell.

Perovskite/perovskite/silicon triple-junction solar cells (PSTJSCs) are emerging as a promising strategy to exceed the efficiency limits of traditional silicon solar cells. This review systematically ...

Crystalline-silicon solar panels are efficient, reliable, and dominate the solar-panel market. However, new third-gen solar technology could do what c-Si solar panels cannot, including flexible, ...

Researchers from the US Department of Energy's National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) are planning to use synthesized tetracene diacid (Tc-DA) to develop so-called singlet fission solar cells.
