In the past few years, the research effort on 2D materials has rapidly increased, driven by the great variety of layered materials and their exceptional properties when reduced to a few atomic layers ...
Scientists at Germany's Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems ISE have demonstrated a triple-junction solar cell with a perovskite-perovskite-silicon subcell configuration. They said the cell ...
The feature size of silicon-based transistors is approaching the theoretical limit, which puts forward higher requirements for the “atomic level manufacturing” of semiconductors. The basic idea of ...
The open-circuit voltages of mature single-junction photovoltaic devices are lower than the bandgap energy of the absorber, typically by a gap of 400 mV. For CdTe, which has a bandgap of 1.5 eV, the ...
