Lotus Systems has received an order from a large German solar cell manufacturer to install fully automated wet chemical process lines for cell production. There was also an agreement to cooperate long term, and a total v...
A major obstacle to producing affordable organic solar cells is coaxing these carbon-based materials to reliably form the proper structure at the nanoscale (tinier than 2-millionths of an inch) to be highly efficient in converting light to electricity. The goal is to develop cells made from low-cost plastics that will transform at least 10 percent of the sunlight that they absorb into usable electricity and can be easily manufactured.
Dow Corning has named Rainer Spielberg as Global Marketing Manager for its Solar Market Business Unit, which provides silicon-based solutions throughout the entire photovoltaic value chain and to the concentrated solar p...
A new class of economically viable solar power cells-cheap, flexible and easy to make-has come a step closer to reality as a result of recent work at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).
Hydro's Extrusion Americas unit has signed an agreement with Florida Power & Light (FPL) to supply custom aluminum extrusions for the first hybrid solar/fossil fuel energy generating facility in the world. When i...
The laboratory for photovoltaics of the University of Luxembourg has produced its first thin film solar cells made from compound semiconductors, already reaching a 12 percent efficiency. Thin film solar cells are conside...
WACKER, the Munich-based chemical company, will be using the 24th European Photovoltaic Solar Energy Conference and Exhibition to present a new thermoplastic encapsulant for the manufacture of photovoltaic modules.
Nanometrics Incorporated (Nasdaq: NANO), a leading supplier of advanced process control metrology systems used primarily in the manufacturing of semiconductors, solar photovoltaics and high-brightness LEDs, today announc...
Four of R+D Magazine's prestigious R+D 100 Awards for 2009, which recognize the 100 most significant proven technological advances of the year, have gone to researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy's Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory and their colleagues.
On Friday 10 July the research programme Towards Biosolar Cells was granted a budget of 25 million euros by the Dutch Government. The Ministry of Agriculture, Nature and Food Quality recommended the programme because it will contribute to green energy, improve food supplies and a create a more sustainable biomass. The research focuses on increasing the efficiency of sunlight conversion into energy and building materials in plants and algae through photosynthesis.
