Thin-film Solar Panels
Thin-film solar panels are new solar devices that alleviate the energy crisis. Thin-film solar panels can be manufactured using low-cost ceramic, graphite, metal sheets and other different materials as substrates. The thickness of the thin film that can generate voltage is only a few μm, and the current conversion efficiency can be up to 13%. In addition to being flat, thin-film solar panels can also be made into non-planar structures because of their flexibility. Thin-film solar panels have a wide range of applications. Thin-film solar panels can be combined with buildings or become part of buildings, and are widely used.
