Abstract
The Sun, believed by the mankind to be just a mere centerpiece of the solar
system in which we live is in reality not just a unit but an entire symphonic
system which was in place much before the first humans ever walked on planet
earth. This system which has been the primary energy source for origin of life
on earth is in fact very well adequately positioned by nature to fulfill the
needs of energy for humans for many more centuries to come.
An effort by humans to harness this abundant source of energy available around
us has manifested in the form solar energy being converted to many
applications as diverse as heat channelizing, electricity conversion, electro
mechanical applications and many more as these. The dream of solar energy for
human applications was realized in the early part of this century by the
invention of solar cells which when arranged in photovoltaic arrays deliver
power for bigger applications.
The next leap of invention in this direction is “Thin Film Solar
Cells”. Aruvians Rsearch' s report Thin Film Solar Cells earmarks the
immense potential that this technology holds for the future of mankind and the
crucial impact it will have on the process of introduction of solar energy
into large scale arenas of the industrialized economies.
Aruvians Rsearch' s report on Thin Film Solar Cells initiates with a strong
theoretical understanding of the Solar Cell system and their subsequent
propagation into photovoltaic systems including their applications derived
from generational leaps as first to third generation cells. The report
presents the entire gamut of PV cells in a structured family tree for easy
interpretation and also delves into the applications of PV Technology in
isolated environment.
Aruvians Rsearch' s report also devotes an entire in depth section to the
technical aspects of Thin Film Solar Cells systems including their history as
well as mechanism, general operation principles and the new innovations in
architecture design of Thin Film Solar Cells which have opened up new markets
for solar power systems. These are further explained in the efficient design
choices of various configurations and new ideas contributed in this field.
The research report looks at the role of P3HT which is crucial to the
development of Thin Film Solar Cells and also at the various properties of
silicon that are responsible for making silicon an excellent material in
photovoltaics. An analysis of thin film crystalline silicon solar cells,
CIGS/CIS-based thin film solar cells, dye-sensitized solar cells, and the
latest technological innovation of nanotechnology-enhanced thin film solar
cells, is what sets this research report apart from all others.
The report has separate analysis on the various manufacturers in this market
based on their specialty. Overall, Aruvians Rsearch' s report Thin Film Solar
Cells is a very comprehensive tool for understanding this technology in a in
depth manner and deliver thought provoking views on the marvels of this field
which is nature' s helping hand lent to mankind in order to preserve a way of
life which is sustainable as well as in sync with our environment.
