Novel electrode for flexible thin-film solar cellsZurich, Switzerland (SPX) Apr 25, 2011 Conventional silicon-based rigid solar cells generally found on the market are not suitable for manufacturing moldable thin-film solar cells, in which a transparent, flexible and electrically conductive electrode collects the light and carries away the current. A woven polymer electrode developed by Empa has now produced first results which are very promising, indicating that the new material may be a substitute for indium tin oxide coatings. The scarcity of raw materials and increasing usage of r ... read more |
