The solar industry has dragged its heels on the issue of silver-dependence for cell metallization, but China’s Jiangsu ...

The process uses screen printing techniques that rely on squeegeeing ... That film then gets pressed onto preheated solar cells. The elevated temperatures make the pattern stick on the cell ...

Printing solar cells involves suspending advanced solar materials called perovskite in ink. The ink can then be printed onto long continuous rolls of flexible film made of plastic that conducts ...

Since the project is open-source any number of materials can be used for the solar cell casing, and with the STL file available it’s not strictly necessary to 3D print the case as other ...
