A new “energy-multiplying” solar breakthrough could push efficiency beyond 100% and transform how we capture sunlight.

Scientists are always pushing the boundaries of solar cell efficiency – how much of the available sunshine gets turned into ...

A new solar breakthrough may overcome a long-standing efficiency barrier. Researchers used a “spin-flip” metal complex to capture and multiply energy from sunlight through singlet fission. The result ...

Scientists discover a new way to capture more energy from sunlight. This could improve solar panels and reduce wasted energy in the future.

Ever since Benjamin Franklin’s lightning experiment in the 18th century, civilization has been intrigued by the idea of capturing lightning in a bottle. Over time, however, the idea evolved from ...
