Solar cells are vital for the green energy transition. They can be used not only on rooftops and solar farms but also for powering autonomous vehicles, such as planes and satellites.
A do-it-yourself device that started life as a hobby and took off during COVID-19 could help to unlock the next generation of solar energy, including advanced technology for space missions.
Whether in photosynthesis or in a photovoltaic system: if you want to use light efficiently, you have to absorb it as completely as possible.
More than 60 engineers and scientists are gathering at Southwest Research Institute Aug.
Solar flares are solar storm events driven by the magnetic field in the solar activity area.
Solar panels aren't just for rooftops anymore - some buildings even have these power-generating structures all over their facades.
An international research team led by the University of Gottingen has, for the first time, observed the build-up of a physical phenomenon that plays a role in the conversion of sunlight into electrical energy in 2D materials.
