Foldable Solar Cells

Foldable solar cell?
As the name suggests, it is a cell that combines two types of solar technology, perovskite and flexible silicon.
Perovskite/silicon solar cells :-These are a new class of solar cells that have recently attracted increasing attention due to their remarkable efficiency, however, they inherently suffer from loss of flexibility.
Therefore,developed  flexible  perovskite/silicon tandem solar cells by fabricating perovskite solar cells on top of thin crystalline silicon solar cells and making them bendable.
It can be sure that making it flexible required complex processes to develop. This is the step-by-step process by which the new solar material is created.
1) First, they used potassium hydroxide etching to thin the bottom silicon cell.
Then, they textured the back.
2) Next, they applied a protective layer of silicon nitride using chemical vapor deposition.
3) Finally, they cut the cell into five-centimeter squares.
"What can we expect from this foldable solar cell placed in photovoltaic material?"
In addition to shocking the world of science and breaking the laws of energy, this new foldable solar cell has come to change the entire energy sector. This is because it could be the ideal object for buildings with integrated solar energy (BIPV). Not stopping there, it can also be applied in
a) Solar-powered mobile electronic devices.
b) Lightweight solar vehicles.
c) Weight-restricted space missions.
d) Further increase the conversion efficiency, future research should involve improving current matching by applying a bifacial heterojunction to the bottom cell.
And if we thought this new flexible solar cell was the only threat to solar power, we afraid it’s not.
Scientists have created a 2 kW star-shaped wind turbine for the home that beats solar panels. It looks like the future of photovoltaics is in danger.
