Researchers at Tohoku University in Japan claim to have developed a tin(II) sulfide (SnS) solar cell with a high open-circuit voltage, due to an SnS interface exhibiting large band bending. The novel ...

Researchers at the Saitama University in Japan have fabricated a thin-film perovskite solar cell based on fluorinated phosphoric acid passivating additives and mixed solvents for passivating halide ...

It was 1839 when prominent French physicist Edmond Becquerel observed that some materials have the ability to create electrical charges. Now, 185 years later, solar has come a long way and will ...

Thin film material own the property of bandgap and requires ten times lesser quantity of substrate material to absorb light as compared to other solar cells. These are employed in wide range of ...

What are Thin Film Solar Cells? Thin film solar cells are second-generation devices that are produced by depositing one or more thin layers of photovoltaic materials on a substrate. Common substrates ...

Digital design and fabrication techniques allowed researchers in Switzerland to create a curvy, super thin concrete roof that will one day help a residential unit produce more power than it consumes.

Photovoltaic devices have helped us tackle and provide a promising solution to the world energy crisis. For example, photovoltaic devices like solar cells convert sunlight into electricity. These ...

Photovoltaic cells made from cadmium telluride (CdTe) – already widely used in solar energy generation – also excel at harvesting ambient light indoors, making them an excellent energy source for the ...

Cu2SnS3 (CTS) thin films have emerged as a promising class of absorber materials for thin film solar cells due to their earth‐abundant, non‐toxic constituents and favourable optical and electronic ...

Thin film solar cells represent a transformative approach in photovoltaic technology, utilising semiconductor layers only a few micrometres thick to convert sunlight into electricity. These cells ...
