Chinese solar manufacturer Longi has released the first detailed technical explanation of how it built the world’s most efficient silicon solar cell. This achievement was first announced in April 2025 ...

Researchers at Germany's Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems (Fraunhofer ISE) have fabricated a perovskite-silicon tandem solar cell that relies on a bottom PV device with a TOPCon design ...

Solar power is already one of the fastest growing sources of electricity on the planet, yet scientists say it is still only ...

Multicrystalline silicon remains the cornerstone of photovoltaic device production, benefitting from a balance between performance and cost. The manufacturing process typically involves directional ...

The research group led by Professor Martin Green has not published yet Version 67 of the solar cell efficiency tables, due to production delays. Green, however, has accepted to comment on some of the ...

The ‘hybrid route’ builds on established perovskite-silicon production methods, including spin-coating and blade-coating. Image: Fraunhofer ISE. A new manufacturing method has produced ...

Researchers from the National University of Singapore (NUS) have developed a vapour-deposition method that they say ...

A newly developed metasurface-based silicon antireflective coating combines rectangular and cylindrical meta-atom geometries. The metasurface achieves just 5 percent reflection, compared to ~50 ...

Recently, perovskite solar cells have emerged as a promising alternative to traditional silicon panels, offering potentially higher efficiency and lower production costs. With the increased demand for ...

Perovskite solar cells are a high-efficiency, low-cost alternative to traditional silicon-based solar panels. With the perovskite solar cell industry expected to reach $1.2 billion by 2033, there’s ...
