Researchers at IBM have increased the efficiency of a novel type of solar cell made largely from cheap and abundant materials by over 40 percent. The IBM solar cells also have the advantage of being made with an inexpensive ink-based process. The ...
The race for inexpensive, highly efficient solar cells may have gained another contender in the form of silicon microwires. "All wires thus far have had 1 or 2 percent efficiency [at the array level] with fundamental questions about whether they could ever ...
A California company is using silicon ink patterned on top of silicon wafers to boost the efficiency of solar cells. But this usually requires adding several etching steps to the manufacturing process, and this type of cell architecture "costs a lot of ...
"The main limiting factor in a solar cell is that when you absorb a high-energy photon, you lose energy to heat, and there's no way to recover it," says Matthew Beard, a senior scientist at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory in ...
