Scientists propose solar cell taxonomy based on absorber integration

Researchers from the University of León in Spain have proposed a new solar cell technology classification intended to bring clarity to the growing diversity of photovoltaic technologies and overcome the limitations of the conventional generation-based taxonomy. Whereas the conventional taxonomy classifies photovoltaic technologies primarily according to successive technological "generations," the proposed taxonomy replaces this chronological hierarchy with a structure- and physics-based classification defined by how the absorber is integrated into the device and by the dominant mechanisms governing ...
