According to the report’s authors, LECO is now used in the production of around one-quarter of TOPCon cells. Image: Trina Solar. A new study has found that the laser-enhanced contact optimisation ...

Researchers from Daegu Gyeongbuk Institute of Science and Technology (DGIST) in South Korea announced a new process to make bifacial narrow band copper, indium, selenium (CuInSe₂) solar cells. A ...

At a recent solar energy trade show, the first thing anyone would note is that solar cells are cheaper than ever before. Perhaps second, is that solar vendors had all sorts of solar panels. There were ...

Perovskite solar cells can be made not only more robust but also more efficient, scalable and cheaper to manufacture by replacing the indium tin oxide (ITO) in the device, according to research led by ...

The efficieny result represents one of the best performances ever achieved for this kind of thin-film solar cell to date. The device was fabricated with a rear contact interface that reportedly ...
