Scientists at the Korea Institute of Energy Research (KIER) have developed a CIGS solar cell with ultra-thin glass (UTG ... of over 17% for cadmium-free flexible solar cells by employing an ...

By contrast, the EPFL team's ultra-thin silicone design easily bends around the tissue. Beyond conformability, the soft array's flexible microfabrication means it can be reconfigured for different ...

The Air is also impressively thin and lightweight (3.3 pounds ... are great for general use while 2-in-1 convertibles offer flexible designs with displays that rotate 360 degrees.

Competing with top rigid counterparts, the device achieved an impressive stabilized efficiency of 24.6% (certified at 23.8%), one of the highest reported values for flexible thin-film solar cells to ...
