by Clarence Oxford Los Angeles CA (SPX) Mar 30, 2026 A new study has demonstrated that artificial intelligence can design color-tunable solar windows that maintain, and even enhance, their power output compared to conventional transparent solar cells. The work focuses on semitransparent perovskite photovoltaics, a promising technology for building-integrated applications where windows and other surfaces […]
by Riko Seibo Tokyo, Japan (SPX) Mar 30. 2026 As demand for renewable energy grows worldwide, engineers continue to wrestle with how to harvest the full solar spectrum efficiently using different conversion technologies in a single system. Photovoltaic cells operate best at relatively low temperatures, while photothermal and thermophotovoltaic systems require high temperatures, creating a […]
by Clarence Oxford Los Angeles CA (SPX) Mar 30, 2026 A team from the University of Stuttgart and international partners has reported a new material design that increases both the efficiency and environmental resilience of perovskite solar cells. The work represents another step toward practical deployment of perovskite technology as a competitive option in photovoltaics […]
by Riko Seibo Tokyo, Japan (SPX) Mar 30. 2026 Researchers at The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology have demonstrated a fully solvent free route to high performance perovskite solar cells using an all vacuum deposition process that improves crystal quality and device stability. The work, carried out with collaborators at the University of […]
by Riko Seibo Tokyo, Japan (SPX) Mar 30. 2026 Regular perovskite solar cells, which place the electron transport layer beneath the perovskite absorber and the hole transport layer on top, face limits for large scale manufacturing and operational stability. Inverted perovskite solar cells reverse the positions of the electron and hole transport layers, […]
by Riko Seibo Tokyo, Japan (SPX) Mar 30. 2026 A new review in the journal Energy and Environment Nexus examines how advances in the geometric design of tubular solid oxide fuel cells could speed their adoption in cleaner and more efficient energy systems. The authors provide a detailed survey of fabrication methods, structural configurations, and […]
