BEIJING: The problem of solar cells being damaged by weather is almost solved, scientists have successfully experimented to make solar cells more efficient and durable.
Chinese scientists have surprised people by bringing flexible solar cells closer to silicon through a new technology.
Researchers at China's Ningbo Institute of Materials Technology and Engineering have developed a new technique to increase the power generation efficiency of organic solar cells to 20.4 percent.
The results of the aforementioned research were published in the scientific journal Geol on October 21.
According to the research, organic solar cells convert sunlight into electricity using carbon-based materials instead of the silicon used in traditional solar panels, while they can be lighter, flexible and in some cases transparent compared to silicon panels.
