Perovskite Solar Cells Can Be Refined Through Exposure To Light, Water, & Oxygen
New research published in the inaugural issue of the journal Joule suggests that light and water could be used to make perovskite solar cells markedly more efficient.
New research published in the inaugural issue of the journal Joule suggests that light and water could be used to make perovskite solar cells markedly more efficient.
When two “wonder materials” of the solar energy age combine, good things happen. That’s the takeaway from new research that leverages graphene to create a more durable, efficient — and super cheap — perovskite solar cell.
Will the US Energy Department keep the good news about wind and solar rolling, Paris or no Paris? This new coal-killing perovskite solar cell study says yes
Scientists in Korea have claimed a new world record for the efficiency of the perovskite solar cell they have created in the lab. They think the breakthrough will contribute to a wider acceptance of PSC in the commercial world.
Next Generation Perovskite Solar Cells With New World-Record Performance
Oxford Photovoltaics, a leading pioneer in perovskite solar technology, has attracted an additional £8.1 million in equity funding, essentially doubling the amount of Series C investment funding, and has announced a Joint Development Agreement with “a major solar panel manufacturer.” A large amount of this new funding comes from three new “strategic … [continued]
“We could take a silicon solar panel with a lab record efficiency of converting sunlight to electricity of 25 per cent, add a perovskite layer, and boost the power generation by a fifth,”
It sounds like the name of a DC Comics villain, but Otswald Ripening could become the hero of the perovskite solar cell field.
Researchers from École polytechnique fédérale de Lausanne in Switzerland are fine tuning perovskite solar cells with a “burst” of vacuum flash.
Two new perovskite solar cell studies indicate that the cost of solar power has a long way to go before bottoming out.
