Project Details
Large-Scale and Flexible Perovskite Solar Cells for VLEO Applications (B05)
Subject Area
Electrical Energy Systems, Power Management, Power Electronics, Electrical Machines and Drives
Term
since 2024
Project identifier
Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) - Project number 516238647
In this project, novel, micrometre-thick, highly efficient perovskite solar cells produced by a printing process on very thin and flexible glass or polymer films are developed and characterised. The degradation behaviour of such solar modules in the chemically aggressive environment of the VLEO will be investigated theoretically and experimentally to improve their resilience. Further optimisation of the area-specific energy yield by superimposing several solar cells with different absorption bands will also be investigated.
