photovoltaic cell

Thermophotovoltaic cells work similarly to photovoltaic cells, commonly known as solar cells.

A screening method developed by Li to map the photoelectrochemical output of various silicon-based materials could also have uses elsewhere, Tian pointed out, such as in fields like new battery technologies, catalysts, or photovoltaic cells.

In addition, it can also be used for non-polar organic molecules, making it useful for devices like organic photovoltaic cells and transistors.

The University of Ottawa, together with national and international partners, has achieved a world first by manufacturing the first back-contact micrometric photovoltaic cells.

Unlike previous panels, the new panels have photovoltaic cells made of cadmium telluride.
