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
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 recent study, affiliated with UNIST has presented a highly stable perovskite solar cells (PSCs), using edged-selectively fluorine (F) functionalized graphene nano-platelets (EFGnPs). This... Read more
A Korean research team has developed semi-transparent perovskite solar cells that could be great candidates for solar windows. Scientists are exploring ways to develop transparent or semi-tr... Read more
A U of T Engineering innovation could make printing cells as easy and inexpensive as printing a newspaper. Dr. Hairen Tan and his team have cleared a critical manufacturing hurdle in the dev... Read more
A breakthrough in solar power could make it cheaper and more commercially viable, thanks to research at the University of Warwick. Solar cells can be made with tin instead of lead, Warwick s... Read more
