Perovskite solar cells shouldn’t work as well as they do—but they do. Scientists have now discovered that defects inside the ...

Perovskite solar cells, PSCs, have emerged as one of the most promising renewable energy technologies of the past decade.

How do organic solar cells work on the inside? The answer lies in structures far too small to see—and difficult to access ...

Perovskite solar cells are a promising alternative to traditional silicon solar panels but have poor durability. Professor Ted Sargent, Research associate professor Bin Chen, Postdoctoral fellows ...

A technique that improves the performance and stability of next-generation solar cells—without adding any chemicals or ...

Researchers have developed a perovskite-organic tandem solar cell that achieves 26.4 percent efficiency. Unlike rigid silicon modules, the lightweight design can generate power on curved or flexible ...

Fraunhofer ISE-led researchers demonstrated zinc-doped tin oxide (ZTO) as an indium-free alternative to indium tin oxide (ITO ...

The transparent four-terminal perovskite solar cell employs an ion-modulated spiro-MeOTAD hole transport layer, which passivates interfacial defects, enhances carrier dynamics, and allows for a ...

Our research focuses on developing innovative materials that can improve solar cell technology. We specialize in creating new materials that can capture and transport solar energy more efficiently, ...

At a recent solar energy trade show, the first thing anyone would note is that solar cells are cheaper than ever before. Perhaps second, is that solar vendors had all sorts of solar panels. There were ...
