  • Natcore Technology found a lower-cost production method for its high-efficiency solar cell

    Natcore Technology Inc. has dramatically streamlined the fabrication method for its Natcore Foil Cell, allowing for even lower-cost production methods of this highly efficient, all-black solar cell. Natcore’s previous laser processing method has been eliminated and replaced by a carrier selective contact process. This is combined with a foil metallizationRead More — Solar Builder magazine

  • Natcore Technology’s new solar cell design shows huge efficiency jump in 11 months

    Natcore Technology Inc. has achieved commercial-level efficiencies for its laser-processed solar cells. This refinement of Natcore’s all-back-contact silicon cell structure, which utilizes low-cost aluminum instead of high-cost silver, has progressed rapidly. Less than 11 months ago, early proof-of-concept cells were delivering 4 percent efficiencies. Today, the cells have already reached efficienciesRead More — Solar Builder magazine
