Characterization of self-cleaning coated composite materials for solar cells applications
The development of solar cell technologies is critical for advancing sustainable energy solutions. One of the significant challenges faced by solar cells is the accumulation of dust and debris on their surfaces, which can significantly reduce their efficiency. Our research work will be focused on new development composite material which are designed to repel dirt, dust, and other contaminants, ensuring that the solar cells maintain optimal performance. The optimum WO3-B composition was utilized in this research work to prepare the SiO2/WO3- B5/ZnO film sample. The composite film sample resulted the highest photocatalytic dye degradation efficiency (92%) with the SiO2/WO3- B5/ZnO/70/30) film sample after 240 min of the UVA light irradiation.
