Photovolatic solar cells are renewable energy devices which convert light energy into electric energy. The costof PV devices is still very high. We have deleloped silicon structures for application in PV with benefits of lowtemperature processes, thus less power consumption and a reduction in heat dissipation to the environment -reduces carbon footprint. Si structures can be deposited onto cheap/flexible plastic substrates , process is fully-scalable, compatible with an already existing industrial process (PECVD) , reduces manufacture cost andprecursor to manufacturing industry. The project is aim to exploit the aforementioned benefits intophotovoltaic solar cells.

光伏太阳能电池是将光能转化为电能的可再生能源装置。光伏器件的成本仍然很高。我们已经开发出适用于光伏应用的硅结构，具有低温工艺的优势，因此功耗更低，减少了对环境的散热-减少了碳足迹。Si结构可以沉积在廉价/柔性的塑料衬底上，工艺完全可扩展，与现有的工业工艺（PECVD）兼容，降低了制造成本，成为制造业的先驱。该项目旨在利用光伏太阳能电池的上述好处。
