Problems solved by technology

However, a problem arises in this way. Originally, there is only sunlight that illuminates one light transmission direction of the solar cell, but the infrared light converted by the quantum tailoring layer deviates from and illuminates the two light transmission directions of the solar cell. Therefore, the utilization rate of infrared quantum tailoring luminous energy is only 50%, which is the main reason why near-infrared quantum tailoring has not achieved significant enhancement to improve the power generation efficiency of solar cells so far.

Abstract

The invention provides a double-function glass ceramic material and a double-surface solar cell using same. The double-function glass ceramic material has functions of quantum tailoring and wavelength conversion and furthermore has a scattering function to visible-near-infrared light. The glass ceramic material is arranged at the back surface of the solar cell, and sunlight which is incident from a side surface can be scattered to multi-direction uniformly irradiated sunlight, thereby realizing irradiation to the bottom surface (back surface) of the solar cell. The solar cell can realize double-surface power generation, thereby greatly improving power generation efficiency of the solar cell.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of solar cells, in particular to quantum tailored functional materials for solar cells and solar cells using the same. Background technique [0002] The research and development and utilization of new solar energy is a major hot research topic at home and abroad. Solar energy is abundant, but due to the high photoelectric conversion cost and low efficiency of solar cells, there is a huge difference between the solar energy that has been developed and utilized and the actual reserves. A major problem faced by solar cell photovoltaic devices is that energy conversion needs to span the ultraviolet, visible and near-infrared solar spectral regions, and solar cells need to have high conversion efficiency in the entire spectral region. for E g = 1.12eV crystalline silicon single-junction solar cell, it only has better response sensitivity in the range of energy slightly greater than 1.12eV, that is, wave...
