subject: Micron Solar Cells Hit The Big Time [print this page] To control the natural features that silicon (silicon) will grow into the island's , using of micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) technology will make those tilting to become the world's smallest island of the solar cells,Sony NP-FH100 .
Now the solar Panasonic CGR-S003 cells grow on the lattice arrangement of the whole wafer, but also if the defect apear on cells ,it would have to abandon the entire; but Sandia National Laboratories found that "smaller is better" .The laboratory developed a small solar cells,Fujifilm NP-30.weeks of about only 100 microns, thickness 14 ~ 50 microns (including the electrode).
In addition, these tiny solar Fujifilm NP-50 cells can also be cascaded together to produce the high voltage that traditional solar cells can not reach; It is understood that, in the traditional solar cells can produce 12 volts in the same space, using micron solar cells,Fujifilm NP-80 in series will be able to generate hundreds of volts voltage.The Sandia National Laboratories also said that because of the kinds of small size solar JVC BN-V107 cells can also be attached to a soft surface, such as clothing, etc.
In the tests, Sandia National Laboratories can assemble 130,000 per hour in traditional automatic pick and place (pick-and-place) robotic arm, a small solar JVC BN-V114 cell production rate, but the cost of materials needed for each of batteries batteries only one-tenth cents.
