In theory, 2 layers are much better than one for solar-cell performance
Solar cells have actually come a long way, however affordable, thin film solar cells are still far behind extra pricey, crystalline solar cells in performance. Now, a team of scientists recommends that utilizing 2 thin films of different products may be the way to head to develop budget friendly, slim film cells with around 34% effectiveness.
