Recently, a team of 50 scientists from Australia developed a thin paper-like organic printable solar panel after several years of research and development, which has the ability to provide energy for a whole skyscraper. Developers hope to realize the commercial manufacturing of this new power generation device in the near future, starting from low-energy applications.
According to the project's website, this technology has the potential to reduce dependence on traditional energy sources in developed countries like Australia, while providing an economical, easily deployable source of electricity for remote areas outside the grid.
According to China's 3D printing network, unlike traditional solar panels, these solar cell papers can be printed directly on actual housing locations, including glass and roofs, which may create a new design concept. In addition to being used on large buildings, researchers are also trying to use such units for small objects, such as the iPad, which is popular around the world.
“The iPad's surface, laptop backpacks and mobile phone casings will no longer serve as a package, they can also serve as energy harvesters to power these mobile devices.†Fiona, Senior Research Fellow, Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO), Australia Scholes explained.
Researchers have now succeeded in reducing the size of each organic solar cell paper unit to a coin-only volume, and their manufacture has been achieved with improved 3D printers that use solar ink. It is very cheap, looks and works differently than traditional silicon-based solar panels. Scholes said that the partnership between CSIRO members, the University of Melbourne and Monash University has even begun to consider how to send the technology to remote areas of the world that are almost unpowered.
“The way we print them on plastic is no different from the way we print plastic banknotes,†adds Scholes. “Connecting these solar panels is as simple as connecting the batteries.†As for the next thing, the researchers hope With government support, the technology will be gradually used in public places in the next few years.
ICESUN vacuum glass can maintain the high vacuum degree of the glass cavity for a long time, and greatly reduce the failure phenomena such as performance attenuation in various harsh environments. The fulcrum in the glass room is placed automatically by the machine, and the building glass is clamped automatically with a vacuum degree of 10-4 Pa when vacuumizing. 12mm ICESUN tempered vacuum glass is much lighter than 20-50mm insulating glass, which has lower requirements for structural frame materials and hardware components, and reduces the cost of doors, windows and curtain walls by about 50%. The window with Safety Vacuum Glass is not easy to sag and deform, and the service life is longer. ICESUN Vacuum Glass For Buildings adopts low melting point technology, aerospace grade welded glass edge sealing, with the same expansion rate and no air leakage, all of which make our High-tech Vacuum Glass popular among building glass materials.
