An international group of scientists investigated the use of silicon dioxide (SiO2) and zirconium dioxide (ZrO2) as an anti-reflection coating for polycrystalline silicon solar cells.

It now seems that silicon ... solar cell is currently quite low, the researchers envisage that it can be improved by optimizing the conductivity and transparency of the graphene films used, and by ...

scientists from Germany and Algeria are researching the use of diatomite as a raw material for obtaining silicon, a key component of solar cells. Diatomite contains amorphous silicon dioxide ...

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 ...

A UK-based company called Oxford PV announced in September that it had already started the “world’s first” commercial sales of solar panels using perovskite-on-silicon cells, boasting a 24.5 ...
