Abstract. Flexible solar cells, which are compatible with low cost and high throughput roll-to-roll manufacturing, are specifically attractive for applications in wearable/portable electronic
For the previous few decades, the photovoltaic (PV) market was dominated by silicon-based solar cells. However, it will transition to PV technology based on flexible solar cells recently because of increasing demand for devices with high flexibility, lightweight, conformability, and bendability.
In general, if a photovoltaic material can be deposited onto a substrate at temperatures below 300 °C, the material can potentially be used in fabricating flexible solar cells. Several types of active materials, such as a-Si:H, CIGS, small organics, polymers, and perovskites, have broadly been investigated for flexible solar cell application.
Recent advancements for flexible photovoltaics (PVs) beyond silicon are discussed. Flexible PV technologies (materials to module fabrication) are reviewed. The study approaches the technology pathways to flexible PVs beyond Si. For the previous few decades, the photovoltaic (PV) market was dominated by silicon-based solar cells.
Until now, the PV market has been mainly dominated by silicon (Si)-based solar cells (92%) and cells based on cadmium telluride (CdTe, 5%), copper indium gallium selenide (CuInGaSe2, CIGS < 2%), and amorphous silicon (a-Si:H, < 1%) [7, 39, 186]. In the future, the trend of the PV market will move to flexible electronics and related technologies.
Flexible photovoltaic cells based on crystalline silicon with enhanced efficiency are very promising thanks to the exceptional carrier transport characteristics in c-Si. Even though sub-50-μm-thick Si shows flexural rigidity, two main challenges that arise include an increased mechanical fragility and reduced light absorption.
With rapid progress in recent years in new material systems, such as organic semiconductors and metal halide perovskites, flexible PV panels are expected to be commercialized in many more future marketable products. Already the revenue share of thin-film cells has exceeded 25% of the total PV market.
