Learn how to build a simple solar cell at home using copper tape, plastic cups, and water. This step-by-step science experiment demonstrates how to harness solar energy to generate electricity.

Researchers have come up with a new way to make perovskite films for solar cells. The technique is especially well suited to making ultra-thin films that are semi-transparent, which could be useful ...

Osaka Metropolitan University scientists have created a molecule that naturally forms p/n junctions, structures that are ...

A study carried out at the Federal University of ABC (UFABC), in the state of São Paulo, Brazil, presents a new way to mitigate the rapid degradation of perovskite solar cells. The problem, which ...

By protecting the surface during heating, the team reduced the chance that tiny flaws would grow into long-term failures.

UNSW engineers have made a major step forward in the development of a new type of solar cell that could help make future ...
