LCD panel manufacturers that “can introduce thin-film […]

First Solar set the single-cell efficiency world record for CdTe solar PV cells last July, so we sort of saw this module efficiency world record coming. Both the 17.3% efficiency […]

In the past year, First Solar set a cadmium-telluride (CdTe) solar photovoltaic (PV) cell efficiency world record, Q-Cells set a thin-film solar module efficiency record, SCHOTT Solar set a conversion efficiency […]
