In a distant corner of our solar system called the Kuiper Belt, icy bodies lurk in the darkness, orbiting our sun at vast distances. These ancient minor planets are called trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs), and they date back to the formation of the solar system . Researchers participating in the Discovering the Surface Compositions of Trans-Neptunian

New research from the University of New South Wales have found that the Special Injected Metallization (JSIM) technique developed by Chinese manufacturer Jolywood can considerably increase TOPCon solar cell efficiency. The scientists described precisely how laser-assisted firing enhances cell performance, reportedly filling critical gaps in industrial TOPCon cell optimization… https://www.pv-magazine.com/2025/05/02/jolywoods-laser-assisted-firing-process-increases-topcon-solar-cell-efficiency-by-0-6-says-unsw-research/
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, Volume 122, Issue 18, May 2025. SignificanceThe sources of Earth’s volatile elements remain unclear. For many elements, the distinct isotope anomalies of inner and outer solar system materials constrain the provenance of the terrestrial inventory. Yet, for the major life-essential … https://www.pnas.org/doi/abs/10.1073/pnas.2418198122?af=R
A team of Japan-based scientists have set a new power conversion efficiency record for all-organic solar cells, more than doubling the previous record. They say the cell was developed with rganic electrodes with high conductivity that required no acid doping or high-temperature heating, which avoids damage to the plastic substrates… https://www.pv-magazine.com/2025/05/02/scientists-fabricate-all-organic-solar-cell-with-record-8-7-efficiency/
