Chiba team models energy alignment for perovskite solar cells
by Riko Seibo Tokyo (SPX) May 01, 2026 Researchers at Chiba University have developed the first universal model for energy level alignment at electrode, hole-collecting monolayer, and perovskite interfaces in solar cells, establishing a physically consistent framework that explains and provides guidelines for material performance across diverse combinations. A team led by Professor […]
Rice engineers suppress perovskite yellow-phase degradation with dual additives
by Clarence Oxford Los Angeles CA (SPX) May 01, 2026 Rice University chemical engineers have developed a method to make perovskite-based photovoltaics more durable by driving the material directly into its desirable black crystal phase while making it harder to degrade into an inactive yellow phase. Aditya Mohite and collaborators used two key […]
Crystalline buffer layer pushes organic solar cells to 20.21 percent efficiency
by Riko Seibo Tokyo (SPX) May 01, 2026 Researchers have achieved a power conversion efficiency of 20.21 percent in pseudo-planar heterojunction organic solar cells by introducing a crystalline polymer buffer layer that shields against solvent-induced erosion during fabrication. The study, published in Chinese Journal of Polymer Science, addresses a persistent challenge in layer-by-layer […]
Warwick Researchers Find Hidden Intermediate Materials With Uses in Solar Fuels and Batteries
by Clarence Oxford Los Angeles, CA (SPX) May 01, 2026 Chemists at the University of Warwick have identified a series of previously unknown materials formed during the heating of molecular precursors, including a new structural form of bismuth vanadate, a well-studied clean-energy compound with potential roles in solar fuel generation and next-generation batteries.
