Flexible dye-sensitised solar cells on polymer substrates

该项目的预期成果是制备和开发柔性太阳能电池。由此产生的便携式和紧凑的太阳能电池可以被纳入织物，打开太阳能电池市场的服装业。所开发的产品和机制预计可在工业上大规模推广。因此，未来有可能在澳大利亚制造电池，然后出口材料和技术。这将通过澳大利亚人的就业和出口产生的收入使澳大利亚经济受益。

The expected outcomes of the project are the preparation and development of flexible solar cells. The resulting portable and compact solar cells could be incorporated in fabrics opening the solar cell market to the clothing industry. The products and mechanisms developed are envisaged to be amenable to large scale-up in industry. Hence, at a future date, there is the potential to fabricate the cells in Australia and then export the materials and technology. This will benefit the Australian economy through employment of Australians and income generated through exports.
