Abstract:
Society’s ever growing demand for energy has driven the research for finding more sustainable and ecofriendly energy sources, with a focus on renewable energy. The Sun delivers to Earth in one hour more energy than the whole mankind uses annually. The challenges are farming and storing that amount of energy for conventional use. Since 1954, when the first solar cell was presented at Bell Labs, huge technological advances have allowed solar panels to become a powerful competitor to fossil fuel energy. New designs for solar cells, including thin films, DSSC and organic solar cells have opened new perspectives for this industry to become even more economically competitive. In this paper, we describe the production of an n-Si/PANI solar cell, by plasma deposition in vacuum; a hybrid solar cell in which the player is a conducting organic polymer.
