2D materials van der Waals heterostructures (vdWHs) provide a revolutionary route toward high-performance solar energy conversion devices beyond the conventional silicon-based pn junction solar cells. Despite tremendous research progress accomplished in recent years, the searches of vdWHs with exceptional excitonic solar cell conversion efficiency and
[Berlin, Germany, February 13, 2023] Hanwha Solutions, a parent company of complete clean energy solutions provider Qcells, and Trina Solar, a leading global PV and smart energy total solutions provider, today announced that they have reached a patent licensing and transfer agreement with each other over their intellectual properties.
Additionally, other technologies that utilize wafer bonding, such as flexible cells, thin-film transfer, and wafer reuse techniques, are covered. 1 Introduction 1.1 Photovoltaic Solar Cells. Global electricity consumption
Many of the most promising innovations, such as advanced biofuels, solar cells, and water purification, are tightly secured with property rights—particularly patents—and controlled by firms and institutions based in developed countries.
Electron transfer (ET) is the key process in light-driven charge separation reactions in organic solar cells. The current review summarizes the progress in theoretical modelling of ET in these materials. First we give an account of ET, with a description originating from Marcus theory. We systematically go through all the relevant parameters
If you''re innovating in the solar industry, patents will be a primary tool for legally protecting your IP. This is because solar power systems can typically be reverse engineered by competitors, which means you can''t protect them as trade
The polymer solar cell industry has set out on a quest to compete with other thin film manufacturers on their existing markets by rational choices of the technology selling points. Some examples include: • Solar cell—third generation (therein lies improvements over second generation) • Cheap (potentially) • Flexible (good during

Bilayer solar cells (BL-OSCs) without mixed regions are free from these problems and offer a platform to explore the photophysical processes at the donor–acceptor interface. Here, a breakthrough for n-i-p BL-OSCs in charge generation efficiency is reported. A gradual adjustment of the molecular interface orientation of the polymer donor (PM6) is

Triarylamine (TAA) and related materials have dramatically promoted the development of organic and hybrid photovoltaics during the past decade. The power conversion efficiencies of TAA-based organic solar cells (OSCs), dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs), and perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have exceeded 11%, 14%, and 20%, which are among the best
A solar cell, also known as a photovoltaic cell (PV cell), is an electronic device that converts the energy of light directly into electricity by means of the photovoltaic effect. [1] It is a form of photoelectric cell, a device whose
transfer of technologies within companies have been common practices in the utilization of RETs. The intellectual property (IP) system provides much needed regulatory

Danielle Merfeld, the Global CTO of Qcells, noted the willingness of Qcells and CE to collaborate with other industry players to leverage the advantages of LECO technology in the solar sector.
The technology is known to enhance the efficiency of PERC and TOPCon solar cells. South Korea-based solar module manufacturer Hanwha Qcells is still in patent litigation with photovoltaic competitors in various regions of the world over possible infringement of its patents for a passivation technology.
The LECO technique is reportedly able to raise PERC and TOPCon solar cell efficiency by between 0.2% and 0.5%. It reportedly achieves a high throughput through a lean and cost-effective laser treatment.
