As the photovoltaic (PV) industry heading towards multi-TW scale, PV technologies need to be carefully evaluated based on material consumption rather than just efficiency or cost ensure sustainable growth of industry.
Solar-driven photothermal water evaporation is considered an elegant and sustainable technology for freshwater production. The existing systems, however, often suffer from poor stability biofouling issues, which severely hamper their prospects in practical applications. Conventionally, materials are deposited on the membrane supports via vacuum-assisted filtration or dip-coating methods. Nevertheless, weak inherent material-membrane interactions frequently lead to durability, material layer...
Here we report for the first time a monolithic perovskite–CIGS tandem (CIGS = Cu(In,Ga)Se2) solar cell on flexible conductive steel substrate with an efficiency of 18.1%, highest to date, representing important step toward perovskite-based photovoltaics.
Abstract The clean energy transition could see the cumulative installed capacity of photovoltaics increase from 1 TW before end 2022 to 15–60 by 2050, creating a significant silver demand risk. Here, we present learning curve for photovoltaic industry with rate 20.3 ± 0.8%. Maintaining business as usual dominance p‐type technology require over 20% current annual supply 2027 and 450–520 kt until approximately 85–98% global reserves. A rapid higher efficiency tunnel oxide passivated contact...
Abstract High‐efficiency silicon‐based tandem solar cells will likely drive the push towards terawatt (TW) scale PV manufacturing on pathway to net zero emissions by 2050. In this work, we provide a comprehensive analysis of material consumption and sustainability issues for future cells. First, analyse sustainable capacity variety potential candidates top cell in cell. We show that III‐V, CIGS CdTe are not suitable support TW‐scale manufacturing. Perovskites thus present most approach, as...
This review details the design considerations for bottom silicon cell in perovskite/silicon tandems. The highlights shift mindset required when transitioning to mass production of tandem solar cells.
Abstract As PV manufacturing heads towards the multi‐TW scale, it is required to carefully evaluate a wide range of concepts including not only efficiency and cost but also material consumption ensure sustainable technologies. The rapid growth could significantly increase demand for several materials in solar cells such as silver, aluminium, copper even silicon, thereby causing dramatic price fluctuations. Furthermore, capacity would be at risk being limited by supply some scarce metals,...

With significantly improved surface passivation we find that carrier recombination losses at metal/silicon interface will impose a...
MUC1 is associated with cellular transformation and tumorigenicity considered as an important tumor-associated antigen (TAA) for cancer therapy. We previously reported that anti-MUC1 monoclonal antibody C595 (MAb C595) plus docetaxel (DTX) increased efficacy of DTX alone caused cultured human epithelial ovarian (EOC) cells to undergo apoptosis. To further study the mechanisms this combination-mediated apoptosis, we investigated effectiveness combination therapy in vivo intraperitoneal (i.p.)...
