Solar panels like stickers


Scientists produce flexible solar panels that can be glued to all surfaces.

From technology solar cells on thin film (TFSC), have long been expected to completely change our energy future. The first prototype of such thin flexible solar panels that one day we can have on their gadgets, walls, windows, and even on clothing, have so far proved to be quite sensitive and fragile.

TFSC are produced by scientists at Stanford University, currently represent the best use of this technology, you will soon be able to truly find its place in all applications that futurists have predicted and scientific teams.

Their thin flexible solar panels can be placed on paper, plastic and glass, without the need for direct integration in these products, or may be attached as labels or as scientists say, decal, and also easy to separate and reuse.

Scientific work that led the research Chi Hwan Lee and his team published in the publication Scientific Reports, demonstrate technology that enabled them making such "sun label" that can be linked with a variety of gadgets, rechargeable batteries and generators, and thus allow their filling and power supply.

Authors of scientific research suggests that the use of their technology can be applied to all the moving power, smart clothes and electronic systems of the aircraft industry.

"Given that the process of bonding does not require any preparation at the desired surface, it entails great challenges for a variety of industries, says Lee, adding that their TFSC and also ultra-durable, and can be used on curved surfaces, such as tiles, helmets or mobile devices, and that process also reduces the cost of their installation and workmanship.

Scientists also believe that their technology can be applied to other electronics, such as a thin film circuits, transistors and LCDs.
