Imagine a display that harvests ambient light when it is not actively in use, offsetting some of its own energy consumption. Materials physics shows that this is possible; the same semiconductor ...

Scientists in Singapore have developed ultrathin solar cells that could one day turn car ...

Imagine a screen that can power itself when you are not using it. Instead of just sitting idle, it could collect light from ...

Energy harvesting of all types generates significant interest and attention, as it has that aura of getting a little bit of ...

A tiny change at the solar cell surface could unlock much higher efficiency, stronger stability, and more reliable performance than ever expected.

A single photon goes in. Roughly 1.3 usable energy carriers come out. That is the result reported in May 2026 by a team at ...

The transparent four-terminal perovskite solar cell employs an ion-modulated spiro-MeOTAD hole transport layer, which passivates interfacial defects, enhances carrier dynamics, and allows for a ...

Perovskite solar cells are a rapidly advancing photovoltaic technology that has seen a dramatic rise in power conversion ...

Energy can never be created or destroyed. That's basic Physics 101. You simply cannot create energy out of thin air. Yet researchers at Kyushu University in Japan say they have developed a technology ...

An international research team has achieved a record efficiency for transparent solar cells. Researchers in the EU-funded CitySolar project, which includes nine partners from seven countries, ...
