Perovskite materials are increasingly popular as the active layer in solar cells, but they are unstable.

Scientists have recently scrutinized organic solar cells and derived design rules for light-absorbing dyes.

Powering the future: New insights into how alkali-metal doped flexible solar cells work

This development will help solve wear-out failure problems that are limiting advanced applications in computers, solar cells, and many other devices.

Designing solar panels in checkerboard lines increases their ability to absorb light by 125%, a new study says

Researchers have been able to produce multilayered solar panels with the potential to be 1.5 times more efficient than traditional silicon panels.

This approach to grid-scale energy storage is estimated to be ten-fold cheaper than using batteries.

The team achieved 8.1% efficiency and 43.3% transparency with an organic, or carbon-based, design rather than conventional silicon.

The research points to a promising new direction for solar cell research.

These could range from cell phones to cameras and fiber optics, as well as in solar cells.

Researchers have designed a smart technology that can help utility companies better serve communities affected by power outages.

Researchers have created next-generation solar modules with high efficiency and good stability.
