Solar Cell Made Using Graphene

Abstract

The principal objective of this paper is to demonstrate the capability of graphene in making energy efficient solar panels inexpensively. Comparing to silicon solar cells , graphene solar cells are more efficient and provides double the power output in less time. Checking out the difference for the selection of elements between silicon and graphene, graphene leads with respect to properties like electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity, material strength and flexibility. The main difference is its inexpensiveness. Where there is increase in population and insufficient power production in villages ,small scale industries ,graphene solar panels will be installed to gain additional power without any problem .Researchers and industrialists quote graphene as the nearby future for power supply.
