Silicone promises to extend solar cells’ lives
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. – Coating photo-voltaic (PV) cells with liquid silicone could yield more robust and sustainable solar cells at a fraction of the cost of traditional ones. Solar panels deliver power without risk to the environment and climate, but their durability comes at a price. For solar panels to exceed life spans of 25 years, scientists must investigate various types of protective coatings to shield the solar cells from harmful environmental influences. To help protect the fragile silicon...
