A team at Fraunhofer ISE has created new imaging methods to measure losses in individual sub-cells of multi-junction solar cells based on perovskite-silicon and perovskite-perovskite-silicon ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) Organic solar cells are conventionally made from two materials: a donor and an acceptor, which facilitates an efficient charge separation. For the acceptor, the most commonly used ...

(Nanowerk News) Scientists from the National University of Singapore (NUS) have developed a novel triple-junction perovskite/Si tandem solar cell that can achieve a certified world-record power ...

The new cell boasts a conversion efficiency of “over 30%”, according to its developers. Image: Fraunhofer ISE. German research institution Fraunhofer ISE has developed a perovskite-silicon ...

Two commercial deals reveal how triple-junction solar cells based on compound semiconductors are now challenging silicon-based photovoltaics for large-scale terrestrial applications. Triple-junction ...

The current world record for triple-junction solar cell efficiency is 44 percent, but a collaboration between the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory (NRL), the Imperial College of London, and MicroLink ...

Scientists in the Netherlands fabricated three different perovskite layers, all using the same process. The three cells are all tuned to different bandgaps in order to absorb different wavelengths of ...
