Assembly and Production of Nanomaterials for Solar Energy
Conversion of sunlight directly into electricity using photovoltaic (PV) devices is a very attractive source of renewable energy. However, current (PV) technology has challenges with efficient capture and conversion of solar energy and the high price of solar modules. The cost per watt for PV solar cells must be competitive with conventional energy sources if PV is to become widely utilized.
