Spray-On Solar Cells
New Energy Technologies has developed transparent solar cells which can be sprayed onto any glass surface
Current solar cells are largely made of silicon wafers, an expensive and brittle material. And newer, low cost thin solar film requires both a high-vacuum and high-temperature production. Techniques that are much slower than this spray-on solution.
The production of solar-generated electricity on glass is made possible by the world’s tiniest working solar cells, which along with their related components, have now been successfully sprayed on to glass surfaces by New Energy researchers.
