The conversion of solar-thermal (ST) power into electrical power along with its efficient storage represents a crucial and effective approach to address the energy crisis. The thermoelectric (TE) generator can absorb ST power and transform it into electrical energy, making it a highly viable technology to achieve photo-thermal conversion (PTC).
An ingenious solar-thermoelectric (STE) generator device, based on the synergistic function of the thermoelectric (TE) and PTC effects, has gained popularity as a prospective strategy for converting solar power into electric energy because of its safety, noiselessness, and robustness.
In this work, a light-concentrated solar generator and sensor based on a flexible thin-film thermoelectric device has been designed and successfully fabricated with the advantages of self-powered features, high sensing performance, low cost, and easy fabrication.
Solar energy - Electricity Generation: Solar radiation may be converted directly into solar power (electricity) by solar cells, or photovoltaic cells. In such cells, a small electric voltage is generated when light strikes the junction between a metal and a semiconductor (such as silicon) or the junction between two different semiconductors.
