An international team of researchers has demonstrated a novel solvent process for pure and highly crystalline 2D perovskites, which they demonstrated in 2D/3D perovskite solar cells. A n-i-p champion ...

Thin-film solar cells comprising CdTe, Cu(In,Ga)Se 2 have become a less-expensive photovoltaic technology than crystalline Si wafer solar cells. Still, their efficiencies are inferior to those of ...

Researchers in China developed a novel two dimensional (2D) seeding agent to regulate crystallization in a 1.80-eV wide-bandgap perovskite film. A perovskite-silicon tandem device made with the ...

Solar power has long been seen as a clean alternative to fossil fuels. But its everyday use still faces hurdles. Traditional panels are bulky, stiff, and completely opaque. That makes them hard to fit ...

Research in the field of material science and electronics relies on the innovative arrangement of molecules or atoms to develop materials with unique properties not found in conventional materials.

From transition metal dichalcogenides to boron nitride and beyond, these ultrathin systems have found relevance in fields ranging from photonics to quantum computing. Yet despite this momentum, the ...
