Researchers investigated how to use bio-based materials to produce effective UV protection films for solar cells. The study was the first to compare how the properties of different bio-based UV ...

In lab tests, separate sheets of nanocellulose film that had been treated with each of the additives were applied to dye-sensitized solar cells, which were then placed under a UV lamp for 1,000 hours.

Dye-sensitised solar cells (DSSCs) have emerged as a promising photovoltaic technology due to their cost-effective materials, simplified fabrication processes and attractive aesthetic versatility. By ...

Researchers at the Silesian University of Technology in Poland have investigated the enhancing photovoltaic module performance using dye concentrators, finding that their use could result in an ...
