6 FAQs about [Photovoltaic stainless steel substrate]
Is stainless steel a good substrate for solar cells?
Stainless steel is composed of abundant materials and is a durable and flexible substrate, but impurities diffuse from the SS will reduces the efficiency of the solar cell ( Liu et al., 2015, Pianezzi et al., 2012, Zortea et al., 2018 ). Consequently, the prevention of impurity diffusion is required for solar cells on SS foil substrates.
Can steel be used as a substrate for photovoltaic cells?
These industrial buildings often employ coated steel as the building skin. Hence, it is of interest to consider steel as a substrate for fabricating photovoltaic cells.
Can solar cells be fabricated on steel substrates?
One of the challenges to tackle when fabricating solar cells directly on steel substrates is the higher surface roughness as compared to glass or polymer film which can be fatal for thin-film solar cells. Using smooth steel substrates would add to the cost due to the extra surface polishing steps.
