Inexpensive as well as reliable method to change solar cells from nontransparent to clear
Scientists in Korea have actually discovered a economical and also reliable method to change solar cells from nontransparent to clear. Existing clear solar cells have a tendency to have a red shade as well as reduced performance, yet by punching openings that are around 100? m in size (equivalent in dimension to a human hair) on crystalline silicon wafers, it permits light via without tinting. The holes are after that tactically spaced, so the human eye is not able to "see" the pattern. The job shows up December 11 in the journal Joule.

Printed security for perovskite cells
Scientists led by the University of Cambridge have created a brand-new approach to print a protective layer of copper straight onto a perovskite solar cell, supplying protection to the energetic layer from damages frequently created in later manufacturing phases. Cells using this layer were evaluated in various tandem mixes with silicon cells and achieved a maximum efficiency of 24.4%.

Perovskites in space
Researchers led by the Technical University of Munich have actually loaded a selection of perovskite and also natural solar cells onto a rocket, and also sent it right into orbit 240 kilometers over the planet's surface. Their outcomes demonstrate strong capacity for such technologies to power satellites and also even deep space goals.
