Solar cells on thin flexible polyimide substrates

Building Solar Cells on Flexible Polyimide Substrates

Solar cells based on amorphous Silicon on Polyimide have been reported to have efficiency up to 12.7% and CIGS solar cells on Polyimide substrates with 12.8% efficiency. CIGS consist of a thin layer of Cu (In, Ga) Se2. CIGS solar cells are also stable, lightweight and flexible, and are promising for space applications due to their tolerance against high energy irradiation.
