While most solar cells on the market today are based on silicon, energy engineers have recently been assessing the ...

Trying to improve the efficiency of solar cells to become independent from fossil energy sources is a major goal of solar cell research. Physicists now combine perovskite with organic absorbers to ...

The research advanced the durability of perovskite solar cells without compromising their exceptional efficiency, moving closer to a practical, low-cost alternative to silicon-based photovoltaics.

A research team led by Prof. Mingtai Wang at the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has developed a finely tuned method for growing titanium dioxide nanorod arrays ...
