The latest breakthrough of Chinese scientists! Here comes the paper-like solar cell.
Flexible monocrystalline silicon solar cell modules have been successfully applied to space vehicle, photovoltaic building integration, vehicle photovoltaic and other fields.
Monocrystalline silicon solar cell is one of the fastest developing solar cells at present, with the advantages of long service life, perfect preparation process and high conversion efficiency, it is the leading product in the photovoltaic market. "Today, monocrystalline silicon solar cells account for more than 95 percent of the PV market.
At present, mono-crystalline silicon solar cells are mainly used in distributed photovoltaic power stations and ground photovoltaic power stations. If they are made into flexible solar cells that can be bent, they can be widely used in buildings, backpacks, tents, cars, sailboats and even airplanes to provide light and clean energy for houses, various portable electronic and communication equipment, vehicles and so on.
Figure a: Flexible solar cell silicon wafer bending radius less than 5 mm;
Figure b: Flexible solar cells bend more than 360 degrees.
