Researchers from Switzerland's Oerlikon Solar and the Institute of Physics of the Czech Republic’s Academy of Sciences stated that they plan to improve the utilization of solar cells through honeycomb designs.
Researcher Vaneshik said: "Our new three-dimensional solar cell design relies on sophisticated and powerful absorber deposition techniques, which are plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition. This technology has been used for amorphous silicon-based electronic devices. For the production of liquid crystal displays, we just added a new nanostructured substrate to deposit solar cells.†It is learned that this design focuses on optically dense batteries, has a strong absorption of light, and the spacing between the electrodes is still very tight . The nanostructured substrate includes an array of zinc oxide nanopillars, or micropores or nanopores of a "Swiss cheese" honeycomb array can also be used. These efficiencies are expected to be equivalent to current polysilicon solar cells, which dominate the industrial production of solar cells. The significant reduction in cost is the non-microcrystalline laminate panels, which have the same panel efficiency, are equivalent to polysilicon panels, and have a conversion rate of about 12% to 16%, which can increase their industrial-scale production.
