Improve efficiency of Solar Panels With Photon Management

Many people see solar energy as the energy source of the future. After all: the amount of solar energy reaching the earth is around 10,000 times more than the amount of energy we use. But today’s solar panels are expensive and their potential yield is limited. One way of making solar cells cheaper is to use a much thinner layer of semi-conducting material. The layer of semi-conducting material in thin film solar cells is around 1,000 times thinner than that of the regular crystalline... Read More
