Chinese researchers have built a solar redox flow battery (SRFB) that can harvest sunlight and store energy at the same time, while reaching a solar-to-electricity conversion efficiency of 4.2 percent ...

Scientists in China have constructed and tested a device that uses redox couples paired with a single triple-junction amorphous-silicon photoelectrode. When tested under a xenon lamp simulating one ...

Scientists at Spain's Institut de Recerca en Energia de Catalunya (IREC) have fabricated a transparent solar cell based on hydrogenated amorphous silicon oxide. They say it could be used for ...

Fine-tuning the thermal conductivity of amorphous silicon used in technologies such as solar cells and image sensors should become much easier thanks to the computational topology and machine-learning ...

A group led by researchers at Nagoya University in Japan has created a material based on fullerene indanones (FIDO), which promises to improve the durability of next-generation solar cells. Durability ...
