Printable Solar Panels Coming Soon To Change the Way Energy Is Used


Printable Solar Panels
A group of Australian scientists and researchers have claimed to make breakthrough in the field of energy by successfully developing printable solar panels. This group comprises of the scientists from esteemed Australian National Science Agency, popularly known as CSIRO in collaboration with two major Australian universities i.e. Melbourne and Monash. This group had been researching for developing the power cells, which could be printed on plastic as a part of the Victorian Organic Solar Cell Consortium since 2007.

This research team consists of 50 scientists from varied backgrounds such physics, engineering and chemistry, all coming together to give right shape to this innovative and courageous project. With their success in producing the printable solar panels, we are hopeful that very soon it would be used in low-power applications in near future.

Features of Printable Solar Panels

The printable solar panels are highly cost effective and immensely cheap in manufacturing and day to day operations. Its looks and the manner of working is widely different from the traditional silicon solar rooftop panels from Roof Worx LLC. The best thing about it is that it could be made semi transparent or could even be used for a tinted window scenario.

Printable solar panel offers a wide amount of possibilities in industrial, commercial and personal use because of its low cost, flexibility and lightweight. 

The Future of Printable Solar Panels

Researchers are optimistic in their view regarding the use of the printable solar panels in upcoming years. The printable solar panels could be used in a whole range of applications such as temporary structures, consumer product packaging, window and window furnishings, remote locations and developing communities.

A lead researcher also asserted that very soon the electronic accessories like the iPad covers, skins of iphone, laptop bags, tablet covers would be developed up of printable solar cells, which would give these the ability to collect some energy and power the electronics.

How the Printable Solar Panels Are Made

Researchers had used the commercial printer where with the use of solar ink they easily happened to print solar cells. Printing solar panels were as simple as printing plastic bank notes. However, the research for a suitable printing was in development since 2001.

Researchers had developed this simple technique by printing their solar inks in a roll-to-roll process onto process just like the PET method. This printing is usually done in open air along with the use of the off-the shelf printing equipment which were exclusively adapted for using the solar inks.

This project was aimed at developing panels which varies in colour and looks at the same time being lightweight and conformable while delivering a stable voltage even in indoor surroundings.

Printable Solar Panels Does Have Great Commercial Potential

Solar Cell Consortium had applauded this successful venture of the Australian scientists and had said that this technology does have the potential of dramatically reducing the dependence on the traditional sources of electricity not only in Australia but also across the world. This also have the potential to be used in developing countries where it is very hard to find cheap and easily deployable energy source.

Now Take Photos in Complete Darkness with Quantum Camera



Quantum Camera
Now low light is no disadvantage for Cameras as they are getting innovated to take better images even in low light. With this theory Researchers of University of Glasgow have got the inspiration and they are working towards creating an image that will be capable of working even with less than 1 photon per pixel. This team has been able to achieve this milestone which was seemingly impossible through combination of two esoteric technologies namely compressive imaging and photon heralding. The process involves seems to be very clear and simple leaving aside the amount physics and math that went under it.

The first part of this peculiar science is heralded imaging. Also known as “ghost imaging”, this is based on heralded photons. Spontaneous parametric down-conversion (SPDC) process can be used to produce pairs of quantum-entangled photons under certain situations and then they can be split apart. At most of the time, if one of the photon is detected even the other one gets detected.

How the imager works? 

The imagers utilizes a beam splitter which send one out of each pair of photons it has created through the object that needs to be imaged and through a highly sensitive single-pixel detector. The other pair goes through high-speed camera. When a photon is sensed through a target object it leads to the activation of the detector. After this the detector send signal for shutter to open up for about 15 nanoseconds. This amount of time eliminate all the background noise and record the position of the second heralded. This allows it to take the picture of the photons quickly. A delay of 70 nanoseconds has been added to the path of the camera which allows enough time for the shutter to release signal to camera from detector.

Although one can’t avoid the shot noise which comes from the Poisson distribution of photons, this kind of heralded photons enables the imager’s light requirement get as low as one photon per pixel. Compression imaging is used to deal with this noise and go further which is less than one photon per pixel. Compressive imaging utilizes frequency domain information by relying on inherent redundancy of information in natural subject.

Advantages: 

So Quantum camera can take photos in complete darkness and it will need only one photon per pixel. This amazing camera is not meant only for show purposes. The research team hopes it will drive the growth of cameras for scholarship researches, wherein they are required for investigating and analyzing subjects which are extremely light sensitive, for example certain kind of biological specimens. So when it comes to complete darkness, it’s time to ditch all the high end cameras with limited functioning in darkness and move ahead to the next generation of Camera- Quantum Camera.
