The LEEMONS project is researching nanostructured silicon that uses low-energy electron multiplication (LEEM) to allow one high-energy photon to generate multiple electrons, reducing energy losses in ...

Researchers in China have investigated the impact of phosphorus diffusion gettering on industrial silicon heterojunction solar cell and have found that, with an optimized gas flow, higher efficiencies ...

Solar energy plays a big role in the fight against climate change. As the world turns to solar power, concerns about the environmental impact of traditional solar panels continue to grow. Today’s most ...

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 ...

Researchers at the Ningbo Institute of Materials Technology and Engineering (NIMTE) at the Chinese Academy of Sciences have found a new way to stick different layers of tandem solar cells and achieved ...

Researchers have found a way to dramatically reducing energy loss and boosting efficiency perovskite solar cells by incorporating rubidium using lattice strain -- a slight deformation in the atomic ...

What if the future of solar energy wasn’t just brighter but fundamentally redefined? Imagine a world where solar panels are not only more efficient but also cheaper, more durable, and adaptable to ...

Chinese solar manufacturer Longi has released the first detailed technical explanation of how it built the world’s most efficient silicon solar cell. This achievement was first announced in April 2025 ...
