Researchers from the University of Arkansas in the United States have fabricated a graphene-based solar cell that can be used in Internet of Things (IoT) applications. The device was developed in the ...

Perovskites are promising materials for solar cells. A layer of dipolar molecules at the perovskite surface improves the efficiency of these devices. Read the paper: All-perovskite tandem solar cells ...

Perovskite solar cells shouldn’t work as well as they do—but they do. Scientists have now discovered that defects inside the material actually help, creating networks that separate and guide electric ...

A promising solar-cell architecture, in which two layers of perovskite semiconductors are stacked on silicon, is making strides towards achieving its full potential. Read the paper: Triple-1 junction ...

One of the hindrances to large-scale solar adoption, especially in cities, is where to install the chunky panels. Rooftops? Skyscraper walls? Vast open spaces that dense urban centers barely have in ...

PEDOT:PSS is commonly used as a hole transport layer in perovskite solar cells because it combines high transparency, good conductivity, and suitable energy-level alignment, but its moisture ...
