Researchers Improving Thin Solar Cells

Written on September 30, 2006

Iowa State University News Service reports that University researchers are working with SolarFilm to produce thin, flexible solar panels with improved performance and stability. The researchers have discovered ways to improve hydrogen bonding to the silicon in thin solar cells that could increase the cells’ performance by 40 to 50 percent.

The project is partially supported by a $63,406 grant from an Iowa economic development program.
