New technology reduces the cost of solar cells
Japanese scientists have successfully developed a technology that can help reduce the cost of solar panels that are environmentally friendly.
Solar cell (Artwork)Researchers led by Prof. Tatsuya Shimoda of the Japan Institute for Advanced Science and Technology (JAIST) say that the technology uses liquid silicon to spray on panels to form solar panels.
This method requires less equipment than the conventional solar cell manufacturing method, which reduces the cost of producing these solar panels by half .
The new technology will allow businesses to spray liquid silicone on the surface of cars or cell phones to turn them into solar panels.
Professor Shimoda said his team would improve the quality of this solar cell and find a new way to produce more efficient, and promote new technology around the world.
These thin solar panels are becoming popular because they are lightweight and can be used in many different products. However, the production of thin solar panels requires large equipment because manufacturers need to convert silicon into gas before spraying them onto the substrate.
