In 2009, scientists began with a 3.8% perovskite solar cell. 17 years later, LONGi's silicon-perovskite tandem set a 35.5% world recordSolar cell efficiency has dramatically increased from 3.8% in 2009 to 35.5% today. This new crystalline silicon-perovskite tandem cell was ...
Earlier this year, a California startup received approval to launch a 59-foot mirror into orbit. Two years later, the demonstration could redirect sunlight onto chosen points on Earth, allowing crews to keep working after darkA California startup just got FCC approval to test a 59-foot mirror satellite in orbit. The spacecraft, named Eärendil-1, will catch sunlig...
Scientists discover how a one-atom quantum engine can turn ‘waste’ light into useful energyResearchers are developing new ways to understand energy in tiny quantum machines. They argue that escaping light may still perform useful ...
