Solliance realises first up-scaled Perovskite based PV modules
Solliance demonstrates a record 10% aperture area power conversion efficiency for its up-scaled thin-film perovskite photovoltaic modules. The efficiency was measured on an aperture area of 168cm2. Twenty-five cells were serial connected through an optimised P1, P2, P3 interconnection technology. The PV module was realised on a 6x6 inch2 glass substrate using industrial scale-able slot die coating in combination with laser patterning. Further, th...
Invest in the right battery markets: New opportunities
Many interests have been raised within the battery business in 2015 through a number of activities: the launch of Tesla’s Powerwall with low prices supported by the capability of Gigafactory; Apple’s patent relating to charging and managing power in a device with solid-state batteries; LG Chem's opening of a mega battery plant in Nanjing; Bosch’s purchase of polymer solid-state battery company Seeo, etc.
Slimline Label Feeder saves space
Elite Feeder Solutions, a provider of specialist feeders for the SMT and robotics industries, has introduced a 30 mm Slimline Label Feeder that provides 50 percent space saving in a pick-and place-system.According to Elite, label feeders typically have a width of around 60mm. However, most of the labels used in electronics production are very small: maximum 9x9 mm. The space in the pick-and-place system is valuable; therefore says Elite, why occu...

Contest to make audience more aware of rechargeable eneloop batteries
To make its audience more aware of its eco-friendly recyclable and rechargeable eneloop batteries, Panasonic Energy Europe is organising a photography contest around the themes of sustainability and the environment. Every year, approximately 300 million batteries are used worldwide, a staggering 90,000 tons of which end up as household waste in Europe alone.
Perovskite solar cells hit 21.1% efficiency and record reproduciblity
Perovskite solar cells show promise for cost-effective solar energy but heat stability is still an issue. This has been addressed by mixing perovskite materials with inorganic cesium to improve the solar cell’s thermal and structural stability. Using this approach, EPFL scientists have now developed a cesium-containing perovskite solar cell that has achieved efficiency of 21.1%, as well as record-level reproducibility.
