Get StartedBy a fast spray coating process of colloidal monodisperse ZnS microspheres, a photonic glass layer could be easily deposited on silicon solar cells, enabling them to have structural colors. Through varying microsphere sizes, solar cells with different colors are achieved, showing low PCE loss compared to normal black cells.
Different hues of colored Si PV modules are achieved with no more than 10% PCE loss. The equilibrium temperature of colored Si PV modules is only 2–3 K higher than the ideal minimum. Building-integrated photovoltaics (BIPVs) shows attractive potential in utilizing solar energy and easing the global greenhouse effect.
Most reported coloured opaque PV modules use c-Si solar cells 20, 36, 37, 40, 56, 86, with a few utilizing emerging solar cells such as perovskites 27, 87, likely due to the dominance of c-Si in the PV market and its high mass production efficiency 27.
However, traditional silicon (Si) photovoltaic (PV) modules maximize the conversion of solar energy resulting in the monotonous black appearance that limits their wide application .
To intuitively analyze the color properties and PV parameters of colored Si PV modules, the current-voltage (J - V) characteristic curves and corresponding colors for PV modules with and without a functional coating covered are demonstrated in Fig. 10 and the color coordinates and related PV parameters are listed in Table 2.
Herein, we design a novel transparent-colored radiative cooling nanocomposite coating that can be applied to the cover glass of Si PV modules. The functional coating consists of the non-metallic nanoparticle (Si@SiO 2 core-shell nanoparticle) for the structural coloration of PV modules and poly (methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) as the matrix.
