SSOL still hopeful for patent
As one of potential solutionswe discovered that surface plasmon polariton (SPP) assisted solar technologies may be developed to result in enhanced electricity production due to surface resonant excitation or surface Plasmon resonance (SPR). SPP assisted PV cells have heretofore operated by using the enhanced electrical fields produced by the SPR to either be directly converted to electricity or concentrate the light onto an active layer. With this technology implemented in solar cell design, the efficiency of the solar cell can be increased, therefore the cost of solar power per watt will be reduced also.
Our innovative design will also consider the variant spectral and angles, to guarantee excitation of the SPP at any angle around the bang gap, or absorption region of the solar cell unit. With the successful development of our new PV cells, we are expecting the efficiency of the organic thin-film-based solar cells increases significantly.
Though this technology, it is able to increase the efficiency of thin-film-based solar cells. Commercializing this technology into mass production will involve a trade-off between manufacturing cost per-panel and increased per-panel efficiency. In addition, our new PV cell concept will also need to demonstrate that panels using the technology will have a productive life-span and a tolerance to environmental conditions such as humidity, temperature, wind load that are sufficient for the panels to be used in real life application. Accordingly, there is no guarantee that we will be able to commercially produce and market solar panels using our new PV technology.
My post are my opinion only. Everyone should do their own DD.
