Switzerland has developed SD card-size perovskite solar cells with efficiency exceeding 20%

EPFL trial-produced high-efficiency perovskite solar cells

The EPFL announced on June 9, 2016 that a perovskite solar cell with a cell size of SD card has been prototyped using a combination of coating process and simple vacuum process. The cell conversion efficiency exceeds 20 %. Related results have been published in the academic journal Science.

The perovskite solar cell with the highest unit conversion efficiency is a unit developed by Korea Research Institute of Chemicals (KRICT) and Ulsan University of Science and Technology (UNIST) in Korea. The efficiency is 22.1%, but the cell area is very small, only 0.1cm2. This is the first time that more than 20% of cell conversion efficiency has been achieved with a larger cell size (SD card size).

The team that developed the unit was a research team led by Michael Graetzel, professor of photochemistry and interface chemistry at the EPFL, who is well-known for the development of dye-sensitized solar cells. Goetzel et al. first applied a perovskite ink (Video YouTube) as a light absorbing layer on a glass substrate using a spin coating technique. Then, a process called "Vacuum Flash" is used to crystallize the ink while vacuuming. According to EPFL, this method can remove excess components and promote the formation of seed crystals to achieve crystallization. Finally, high-quality perovskite crystals were successfully obtained.

Also intend to achieve more than 30% conversion efficiency

Gretzel predicts that the conversion efficiency will be more than 30% through the use of a tandem structure combining a perovskite solar cell and an existing silicon solar cell. According to him, the theoretical efficiency of this solar cell is as high as 44%. (Reporter: Nozawa Tetsuo)

Have you ever seen any pcp air pump that can pressurize a gun up to 4500 psi/310bar? ours PCP Pump can! The guns that usually require a carbon fiber tank to pressurize them can now be filled with a pcp hand pump. One pump for ALL your PCP guns. How convenient is that!

Our pcp hand pump detailed:


Material: Copper, Stainless steel and Aluminum alloy

Maximum Pressure: 4500psi/310bar

With a female foster quick-disconnect on the end of the hose

Body Color: White, black Camouflage Green, or 

Size:

- Length closed 630mm;

- Length opened 1100mm

Item Weight: about 3.0kg

Feature of 300bar 4500 psi hand pump: 

1. Smooth upward and downwards motion
2. High pressure goes up to 4500psi 300bar
3. Precision pressure gauge for monitoring pressure level
4. High grade 304 stainless steel pump body is much safer
5. All spare parts use advanced CNC technology
6. Bleed valve to prevent oil and water into your equipment
7. Ergonomically designed handle for comfortable use
8. Folding footplate for space saving and easy storage
9. Flexible micro-bore hose for convenient filling
10. Come with O-rings and other complete accessories
11. Comes flat packed with full instructions and tools to assemble


Applications of high pressure air pump:

1.Suitable for any brand of PCP pistols, air rifles and air guns
2. Great for automobile tires, motorcycle tires, bicycle tires, inflatable kayaks, inflatable balls etc.

Advantages of 4500 psi hand pump

1.Small and easy to store
2.Doesn`t need any technical testing
3.Cheaper price compared to carbon fiber tanks                

4.Does not break easily, hand pump is generally durable and can last for years
5.No need to refill so it doesn`t cost any money on the refilling process like air tank.
6.Never run out of air power
7.Can be repaired and serviced easily
8.300 bar pump is highly cost effective.

You buy air hand pump once and there is little money to spend for its maintenance
Gives you ultimate control over the pressure level. You can pump the gun and stop at any pressure point that you want. This characteristic alone makes some air gun experts prefer a hand pump over air tanks for their PCP gun rifles.
