Today, the second edition of the International Conference on Silicon Photovoltaics takes off in Leuven (Belgium). The Si PV conference is a high-level scientific conference on advanced crystalline silicon solar cell technology. This 2nd edition is hosted by imec, a well-known leading R&D center in the domain of nanotechnology with a long-standing tradition in photovoltaics (PV). The conference features inspiring invited lectures, oral and poster ...

Having witnessed the tremendous growth of the solar industry in the past few years, along with all the dramatic events that went with it (consolidation, production capacity growth, efficiency increases, profit margins decreases, competition from thin film technologies, incentives established and withdrawn...), it's hard to map out what exactly can make a new entrant to the sector a successful photovoltaic company.

Heliatek GmbH continues to set new world records for organic solar cells. The company has commissioned SGS, an accredited and independent testing facility, with a measurement campaign of its latest organic photovoltaic (OPV) cells. The result of this campaign is a new world record for OPV with 10.7 % cell efficiency on 1.1 cm2. It also confirms the superior low light and high temperature performances of OPV compared to traditional solar technolog...

Today there are multiple devices available for harnessing solar energy. Each device offers a different set of characteristics. Wafer-based devices consist of mono or polycrystalline and are the most mature technology due to the experience borrowed from the microelectronics industry. They also offer very competitive production costs (Organic Photovoltaics: Technologies, Markets & Players 2012-2022 www.IDTechEx.com/OPV).

CSR announced the launch of BC6145, its most advanced Bluetooth audio platform for single-microphone mono headsets, speakerphones, car-kits and other mass-market wireless audio accessories. BC6145 is the first ROM based mono device to support a new set of consumer-centric features including High Definition voice (“HD voice”) call quality, A2DP music streaming and advanced intelligibility enhancements. BC6145 also supports the compelling benef...

Users of music phones and MP3 players can benefit from dramatically extended music playback time enabled by two new 25-mW Class-G, DirectPath stereo headphone amplifiers from Texas Instruments, which adjust their voltage supplies to the audio signal to minimize power dissipation. In a standalone Lithium-Ion battery test between TI’s Class-G technology and a competing ground-referenced Class-AB device, the TPA6140A2 and TPA6141A2 reduced pow...

STMicroelectronics has extended its STM32 microcontroller portfolio by introducing the STM32W family, which features an integrated IEEE 802.15.4 radio to deliver a true System-on-Chip platform supporting embedded wireless sensor network design.

Films made of semiconductor nanocrystals — tiny crystals measuring just a few billionths of a meter across — are seen as a promising new material for a wide range of applications. Nanocrystals could be used in electronic or photonic circuits, detectors for biomolecules, or the glowing pixels on high-resolution display screens. They also hold promise for more efficient solar cells.

Toshiba Electronics Europe has announced three new additions to its portfolio of solutions supporting the TransferJet close proximity wireless technology transfer standard.

LPRS has today announced the introduction of the eRA-Arduino-S900. A ‘shield’ or stacked module that allows Arduino boards to communicate wirelessly with other eRA module-equipped Arduino boards or PC hosts, using proprietary easyRadio technology operating in the 868 - 915MHz ISM band.
