As predicted by theorists, experiments show that barium zirconium sulfide thin films hold great promise for solar cells, LEDs Scientists have created thin films made from barium zirconium su... Read more
Imagine being able to spray or paint bridges, houses and skyscrapers with the material, which would then capture light, turn it into energy and feed it into the electrical grid. That’s where... Read more
A new type of material for next-generation solar cells eliminates the need to use lead, which has been a major roadblock for this technology. Solar cells, incorporating the mineral perovskit... Read more
Next-generation solar cells that mimic photosynthesis with biological material may give new meaning to the term “green technology.” Adding the protein bacteriorhodopsin (bR) to p... Read more
Researchers have used a graphite coating that makes perovskite solar cells waterproof. A cheaper, cleaner and more sustainable way of making hydrogen fuel from water using sunlight is a step... Read more
Formamidinium lead iodide is a very good material for photovoltaic cells, but getting the correct and stable crystal structure is a challenge. The techniques developed so far have produced r... Read more
A perovskite solar module the size of an A4 sheet of paper, which is nearly six times bigger than 10×10 cm2 modules of that type reported before, has been developed by Swansea Universit... Read more
