A group of researchers led by the Zhejiang University of Technology in China has proposed to use two sulfone-based organic molecules known as diphenylsulfone (DPS) and 4,4′-dimethyldiphenylsulfone ...

A KAIST research team has solved the "solar cell dilemma," in which increasing efficiency shortens lifespan, while extending ...

Korean researchers revealed that efficiency losses in heterojunction solar cells arise from two coexisting defect types – dangling bonds and weak silicon-silicon bonds. Their findings explain how ...

Researchers in South Korea report solving a conundrum in solar energy in which increasing efficiency shortens lifespan, while extending lifespan lowers efficiency. The team at KAIST (Korea Advanced ...

Perovskites are semiconducting materials that have rapidly transformed the field of optoelectronics, demonstrating ...

Benzamidine derivatives are utilized to differentiate between 2D passivation and amorphous passivation. Introducing an n-type 2D passivation layer enhances the charge extraction and transportation and ...

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.

• Bridging the Voc Gap: HTL-free C-PSCs are intrinsically stable and low-cost, yet their open-circuit voltage (Voc) lags >150 mV behind metal-electrode counterparts owing to rampant non-radiative ...
