If the lead - based particles work inside solar cells as well as they do in the lab, they could boost the solar conversion efficiency from a best of about 32 % today to perhaps as much as 66 %, enough to slash the cost of solar power.
He suggests that reaching 5 percent power conversion efficiency would justify the investment for making small, flexible solar panels to power devices such as smart phones.
The paper PSCs were developed with a low - temperature Paper / Au / SnO2 / meso - TiO2 / CH3NH3PbI3 / Spiro - OMeTAD / MoOx / Au / MoOx architecture utilizing a Au / SnO2 and MoOx / Au / MoOx stack as electron - and hole - extracting electrodes respectively, delivering state of the art power conversion efficiency of 2.7 % for solar cells prepared directly on the opaque paper substrate.
The team discovered that a form of perovskite, one of the newest materials in solar research due to its high power conversion efficiency, works surprisingly well as a reversible photoactive semiconductor material that can be switched between a transparent state and a non-transparent state, without degrading its electronic properties.
They also managed to keep excellent power conversion efficiency of solar power to electricity, as recently reported in Advanced Energy Materials.
Last month, AIST announed its new flexible CIGS Photovoltaic Cell with an energy conversion efficiency of 17.7 %, noting that the growing concerns about environmental problems and increasing crude oil prices has led to an increased interest in power generation using renewable energy such as photovoltaics and other new energy resources.
