So far, it has been studied more than 100 kinds of different materials, different structures, different uses and different types too
Solar cells (see Table 1.1). Currently a large area of ??ground-based solar cells is still Silicon Material solar cell, mainly
Monocrystalline silicon solar cells, polycrystalline silicon solar cells, amorphous silicon solar cells, in addition to some of the compounds solar energy
Batteries (such as copper indium selenium thin film solar cells, etc.), the compound gallium arsenide solar cells used in the field of space power. Use
The invasion of terrestrial solar power generation system of solar cells, requiring resistance to wind, frost, rain, snow, high power prices than
Requires a large-scale production process feasibility and sources of material.
