Researchers in Germany have achieved a massive breakthrough after they printed solar cells that are not only more efficient but also far more durable than previous generations. Led by Arved Hübler, ...

Well-known MIT researcher Karen Gleason demonstrated in a recent paper the technology to print a solar cell onto a piece of paper, yielding a thin, lightweight power-generating sheet that can be ...

The TOPCon solar cells fabricated with screen-printed, fire-through copper rear contacts and silver front contacts, using laser-enhanced contact optimization (LECO) to significantly reduce contact ...

A team of researchers in China has demonstrated a novel dual-solvent process in 4-terminal carbon CsPbBr3 perovskite solar cells that achieve 10.18% power conversion efficiency. They have also built a ...

An international research team has developed a metallization technique for TOPCon solar cells that can reportedly reduce silver usage in the devices’ rear side by 85%. The scientists replaced the ...

A new study from Hebrew University of Jerusalem has developed a semi-transparent, color-tunable solar cell to enhance 3D printing processes. A team led by Shlomo Magdassi and Lioz Etgar from the ...

VTT researchers developed a roll-to-roll (R2R) production process involving flexible minimodules, in tandem with a team from TNO. Image: PEARL Consortium. European research initiative the PEARL ...

Scientists at the Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems ISE have succeeded in reducing the silver consumption of TOPCon solar cells to 1.1 ...
