In this project, MIT researchers are developing c-Si thin-film solar cells with a thickness of less than 10 microns at efficiencies greater than 20%. Typical c-Si wafers are about 180 - 250 micrometers thick and account for approximately 30% - 40% of the total module cost. By dramatically reducing the size through nanostructuring surfaces, developing high-performance transparent conductors, and id

Description
Description | In this project, MIT researchers are developing c-Si thin-film solar cells with a thickness of less than 10 microns at efficiencies greater than 20%. Typical c-Si wafers are about 180 - 250 micrometers thick and account for approximately 30% - 40% of the total module cost. By dramatically reducing the size through nanostructuring surfaces, developing high-performance transparent conductors, and identifying low-cost manufacturing processes, this research effort aims to open a new pathway for meeting cost targets. |
