A couple of years ago my roof panels generated enough electricity in one month that I didn’t have to pay my energy bill for ...

Finally, the cell bears an antireflective coating, which ensures that photons—the particles of sunlight needed to generate solar power—are absorbed by the silicon layers and not reflected away.

The Solar Eclipse is just a few weeks away and the big event is bringing hundreds of thousands into the state. Because of this, there's a growing concern around the reliability of cell phone service.

But Infinix is pitching something else: solar power in the phone itself to charge its battery when users are out in the sun. At the show, Infinix demonstrated its SolarEnergy-Reserving technology ...

Infinix has a few concepts, specifically a case that uses solar energy to charge the device. There's also a phone with E-ink ...

Imagine a small, almost unnoticed patch of plastic on your jacket that can power the phone in your pocket ... of the polymers that form an organic solar cell interact with the solvents used ...

It’s showing a phone with an integrated solar panel on the back, as well as a solar charging phone case. They’re both in the concept phase, but the demo units I saw at MWC were functional and ...

Imagine having a phone that can stay charged by simply being exposed to light. On Sunday, ahead of the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Infinix showed me both a solar-powered, wireless charging ...

A solar cell is made of two types of semiconductors, called p-type and n-type silicon. The p-type silicon is produced by adding atoms—such as boron or gallium—that have one less electron in their ...

In a study published in Nature, researchers at Linköping University have developed a method to recycle all parts of a solar cell repeatedly without environmentally hazardous solvents. The recycled ...

Using a newly designed recycling technique, the researchers were able to fully break down a perovskite solar cell at the end of its life cycle using only a water solvent. When they used that ...
