HIGH PERFORMANCE PEROVSKITE SOLAR CELLS, MODULE DESIGN, AND MANUFACTURING PROCESSES THEREFOR

摘要

OHigh-performance perovskite solar cell (PSC) devices, arrays thereof, and modules manufactured on flexible and stretchable substrates using roll-to-roll high throughput manufacturing techniques. The flexible cells can be cut into strips and are connected via flexible and/or stretchable interconnects. The interconnect can be a layer deposited on a wavy surface of the stretchable substrate, a coiled or hinged wire, or a conductive paste that can be deformed prior to curing. The highly deformable solar modules can conform to complex organic contours and shapes, such as those that are common in vehicle designs. Such shapes typically require at least one axis of flex and at least one axis of stretch.
