New research from Germany has shown how improving top-cell transparency and performance remains key to the commercialization of tandem perovskite-silicon solar cells, as well as for all other types of ...

Converting sunlight into electricity is the task of photovoltaic solar cells, but nearly half the light that reaches a flat ...

A tandem solar cell combines two different semiconductor materials to capture solar energy more efficiently. Each material is optimized to absorb a specific part of the solar spectrum. In ...

Flexible perovskite/CIGS tandem solar cell combines a top layer of perovskite — a material that efficiently converts sunlight into electricity — with a bottom layer of CIGS. Thus this tandem cell ...

Scientists from Korea Institute of Energy Research (KIER) have announced that their new tandem solar cell has achieved a record efficiency of 23.64%. The new cell consists of a top layer of ...

Flexible perovskite/CIGS tandem solar cell combines a top layer of perovskite—a material that efficiently converts sunlight into electricity—with a bottom layer of CIGS. Thus this tandem cell ...

The coating works across the visible and near-infrared spectrum (500 to 1200 nanometers) and is effective even when the ...
