NREL Inks Technology Agreement for High Efficiency Multijunction Solar Cells Updated On Fri, Oct 27th, 2017 by Saurenergy The IMM technique licensed by MicroLink Devices enables multijunction III-V solar cells to be grown with both higher efficiencies and lower costs than traditional multijunction solar cells by reversing the order in which individual sub-cells are typically grown. The U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) has entered into a license agreement […] Read more
Scientists Create Most Powerful Micro-Scale Bio-Solar Cell Yet Updated On Wed, Oct 25th, 2017 by Saurenergy A micro fluidic lab-on-a-chip system that generates its own power is essential for stand-alone, independent, self-sustainable point-of-care diagnostic devices to work in limited-resource and remote regions. Researchers at Binghamton University, State University of New York have created a micro-scale biological solar cell that generates a higher power density for longer than any existing cell of […] Read more
Transparent Solar Cells Could Be Massive Power Source Updated On Tue, Oct 24th, 2017 by Saurenergy Highly transparent solar cells represent the wave of the future for new solar applications. Transparent solar materials applied to windows can harvest as much energy from invisible light waves as bigger, bulkier rooftop solar units, scientists say. Widespread use of such highly transparent solar applications, together with the rooftop units, could drastically reduce the use […] Read more
