“Tandems that are all-thin-film are a logical place to eventually go,” said Andries Wantenaar, solar analyst at market intelligence company Rethink Research. “Universities are achieving ...

One key application of the material is in flexible devices, where it acts as an interfacial layer between transparent electrodes and active layers, such as those found in solar cells and displays.

So far, he says, some flexible solar films have seen problems where water has seeped through the coating, eventually causing degradation. And the dominant technology in flexible PVs has been CIGS ...

Thin film solar panels are composed of solar cells that are much slimmer than the average solar panel. They are also more flexible, weigh less, and are easier to install. There are four basic ...

A research team has developed a next-generation thin-film material technology that significantly improves the durability of ...

Large-scale production of organic solar cells with high efficiency and minimal environmental impact. This can now be made ...

Solar Gard makes a protective film for glass called Armorcoat. We took a baseball bat to it to see how well it holds up. Following is a full transcript of the video. This glass is made to be ...
