quantum dot solar cell


 

A novel technology that can improve the efficiency of quantum dot solar cells to 11.53% has been unveiled. Published in the February 2020 issue of Advanced Energy Materials, it has been evaluated as a study that solved the challenges posed by the generation of electric currents from sunlight by solar cells by enhancing the hole extraction.

A research team, led by Professor Sung-Yeon Jang in the School of Energy and Chemical Engineering at UNIST has developed a photovoltaic device that maximizes the performance of quantum dot solar cells by using organic polymers.

Solar cells use a characteristic of which electrons and holes are generated in the absorber layer. The free free electrons and hole then move through the cell, creating and filling in holes. It is this movement of electrons and holes that generate electricity. Therefore, creating multiple electron-hole pairs and transporting them are an important consideration in the design of efficient solar cells.

Generally, quantum dot solar cells combine electron-rich quantum dots (n-type CQDs) and hole-rich quantum dots (p-type QDs). In this work, the research team developed organic π‐conjugated polymer (π‐CP) based HTMs, which can achieve performance superior to that of state‐of‐the‐art HTM, p‐type CQDs. The molecular engineering of the π‐CPs alters their optoelectronic properties, and the charge generation and collection in colloidal quantum dot solar cells (CQDSCs), using them are substantially improved.

As a result, the research team succeeded in achieving power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 11.53% with decent air‐storage stability. This is the highest reported PCE among CQDSCs using organic HTMs, and even higher than the reported best solid‐state ligand exchange‐free CQDSC using pCQD‐HTM. "From the viewpoint of device processing, device fabrication does not require any solid‐state ligand exchange step or layer‐by‐layer deposition process, which is favorable for exploiting commercial processing techniques," noted the research team.

Some most expensive and important components of electric vehicles are the Lithium ion batteries. You can say lithium-ion batteries are the heart of an electric vehicle system because we know around 40 to 50 percent of overall cost only because of Lithium ion batteries. Between 2025 Lithium ion batteries demand for EV application is going to skyrocket as per Government of India we need at least 10 gwh power of lithium-ion cells by the year of 2022 and about 60 gwh energy    by 2025 and 120 gwh by 2030. Epsilon advanced materials Epsilon advance material is the first Lithium ion cell manufacturing company in India they have set up the first Lithium ion in the initial stage they had started their manufacturing mainly for the graphite anode material for lithium ion battery now they are planning from July 2021 they will start the cathode material manufacturing .according to Epsilon advance material they will first of all to invest 60 billion rupees to produce over 1 lakh tones of synthetic

Lithium-ion battery  is the core component of electric vehicles, grid trough periods of surplus electricity can be stored and used to drive an electric car, you can implement the strategy of low power instead of oil, reduce our demand for oil and improve urban air quality, battery store excess electricity during peak hours back to the grid can also achieve peaking. Once the grid has a strong ability to regulate the power of solar, wind, geothermal, ocean energy and other clean power generation means for generating intermittent easily into the grid, clean energy will gain large-scale applications, which solve mankind’s energy and environmental problems It will have a crucial role. Characteristics of the  lithium-ion battery industry  is the quantity, but the large scale, high technology and equipment of small, has a strong capability of independent innovation and even less, companies need to strengthen the capability of independent innovation, and actively participate in cooperative dev
