solarF.net News: Scientists from the University of Picardie Jules Verne and the Federal Institute of Technology have released a new research report on the electrolyte system for solar cells. This system helps solar equipment to break the double-digit situation in terms of conversion rate. The report of the study was published in the Journal of the American Chemical Society.
Frederick Sova, Michael Graetzel and colleagues said that this research aims to develop promising solar cells that are less expensive than conventional solar cells made from semiconductor materials or silicon wafers. These so-called dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs) or Graetzel cells (named after the inventor Michael Graetzel) have Other advantages. For example, they can be made of light and flexible plates that are more durable and more suitable for objects like window blinds. The reason why DSCs are not commercialized is mainly due to their lack of stability characteristics, and their power output will gradually decrease over time.
This new study is indeed a major advancement in the development of new electrolyte compositions for DSCs. This new electrolyte system uses different stable materials with relative efficiencies of up to 10%. The substances in the modified electrolyte system will help achieve current conduction inside the battery. After 1,000 hours of testing, the new device can maintain at least 95% of sunlight power conversion. (Translated by Cara)
