Revolutionizing solar technology: Researchers boost perovskite cell efficiency over 25% using tin oxide, enhancing stability and paving the way for affordable, sustainable energy solutions!

Revolutionary 'self-healing' passivation method boosts perovskite solar cell stability and performance, paving the way for more reliable and efficient sustainable energy solutions.

Introducing the groundbreaking MTPW: a triple-layer thermochromic perovskite window inspired by medical masks. With enhanced durability and optical clarity, it's perfect for sustainable green buildings.

City University of Hong Kong researchers have created an innovative SAM molecule to improve the thermal robustness of perovskite solar cells, unlocking their potential for use in hot climates and reducing our reliance on fossil fuels.

Researchers from SARI, Southern University of Science and Technology, and City University of Hong Kong have developed a strategy for modulating the buried interface between perovskite and tin dioxide (SnO2). Through incorporating FOA, record power conversion efficiency of 25.05% is achieved with improved stability.

Perovskite solar cells (PVSCs) are a promising choice to standard silicon-based solar cells because of their high power-conversion performance and low cost. Nevertheless, one of the significant challenges in their growth has actually been achieving long-lasting stability.

Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) are taken into consideration an appealing candidate for next-generation photovoltaic innovation with high effectiveness and low manufacturing cost, potentially changing the renewable energy industry. However, the existing layer-by-layer production process presents challenges that have actually hindered the commercialization of this technology.

Scientists at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), City University of Hong Kong, École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL), University of Kentucky, University of Colorado, University of Toledo as well as Brown University have actually created a concept that simplifies the process of manufacturing perovskite solar cells, which can increase their path towards commercialization.

A research team from City University of Hong Kong (CityU), Curtin University, National Taiwan University, Huazhong University of Science as well as Technology, Nankai University as well as Polish Academy of Sciences recently developed a lead-free perovskite photocatalyst that delivers extremely effective solar energy-to-hydrogen conversion.

The conversion of solar power into hydrogen energy stands for a promising and also eco-friendly technique for resolving the energy shortage and also reducing fossil fuel discharges. A research group from City University of Hong Kong (CityU) lately established a lead-free perovskite photocatalyst that delivers very reliable solar energy-to-hydrogen conversion.

Organic photovoltaics (OPVs), solar technologies based on organic semiconductors, have actually revealed excellent promise both for the scalable provision of clean energy and also for the development of solar-powered wearable electronics. Regardless of their benefits, organic solar cells suffer from the so-called recombination loss, a loss of photocurrent resulting from the recombination of photocarriers.

New solar cell devices that are more affordable and easier to make might quickly make their means to market thanks to products made at Imperial College London.
