What Are the Types of Nanotechnology-Enhanced Solar Cells?
There are several types of solar cells that benefit from nanotechnology:
1. Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells (DSSCs) - These cells use nanoparticles coated with light-absorbing dye to capture sunlight and convert it into electrical energy. 2. Perovskite Solar Cells - Incorporating perovskite nanomaterials has shown to improve efficiency and stability. 3. Organic Photovoltaics (OPVs) - Using organic nanomaterials, these cells are flexible and can be manufactured at a lower cost. 4. Quantum Dot Solar Cells - Quantum dots can absorb a wider spectrum of sunlight, enhancing the cell's efficiency.
