When you use this tool to remove background from an image, the AI instantly detects the primary subject—be it a sneaker, a ...

A team of international researchers has developed a new record-breaking transparent solar cell with an efficiency of 12.3%. The solar cell combines perovskite and organic layers and has a transparency ...

Stanford engineers have developed a transparent silicon overlay that can increase the efficiency of solar cells by keeping them cool. The cover collects and then radiates heat directly into space, ...

Engineers from Stanford University used basic physics to improve solar panel efficiency. A transparent overlay made of patterned silica releases excess heat and cools down the panels. Excessive heat ...

Semi-transparent perovskite solar cells are highly attractive for a wide range of applications, such as bifacial and tandem solar cells; however, the power conversion efficiency of semi-transparent ...

The conventional solar cells that you see on rooftops capture sunlight from only one side, but have you heard about bifacial ...

An aerogel material that is more than 99% transparent to light and is an excellent thermal insulator has been developed by Ivan Smalyukh and colleagues at the University of Colorado Boulder in the US.

Toshiba has revealed that it has improved the power conversion efficiency of a transparent cuprous oxide solar cell to 9.5%, from the 8.4% mark it reached in December 2021. It enlarged the cell and ...

Germany's Heliatek GmbH has this week announced a new world record in transparent organic solar cell efficiency, achieving 7.2% efficiency on solar cells with a 40% light transparency. The organic ...

A research team has developed an innovative parameter, FoMLUE, to evaluate the potential of photoactive materials for semi-transparent organic photovoltaics (ST-OPVs), paving the way for their ...

With the continued rise in the uptake of solar cells, consumers are now looking at less obtrusive ways to incorporate these in buildings and vehicles. Transparent or semi-transparent cells provide ...

In a step closer to skyscrapers that serve as power sources, researchers have set a new efficiency record for color-neutral, transparent solar cells. In a step closer to skyscrapers that serve as ...
