Glass Substrate and High-functional Coating for Perovskite Solar Cells

Support Challenges of Perovskite Solar Cells

Perovskite solar cells have great potential to become future energy conversion devices. However, key challenges such as improvement of power generation ability and long-term stability of perovskite solar cells still exist. We support those challenges with ultra-thin and flexible glass substrate and various high-functional coatings.

Features of Our Glass Substrate

Our glass substrate has features superior to resin film, as well as excellent flexibility.

Point 01 Gas Barrier Property

Perovskite solar cells can be protected from oxygen and water, which contributes to improvement of long-term stability.

Point 02 High Transparency

Visible light is efficiently transmitted, which contributes to improvement of power generation ability.

Point 03 Heat Resistance

Our glass substrate withstands high temperature, which contributes to broader process condition.

What We Offer Product Information

Glass Substrate

We offer two types of glass substrate with thickness down to 30μm, suitable for flexible and/or lightweight perovskite solar cells.

G-LeafTM

G-LeafTM maintains the advantageous features of glass such as gas barrier property, transparency, heat resistance and chemical durability in a film state.

Ultra-thin Glass with UV Shielding Property

Glass substrate which has high shielding property against ultraviolet(UV) rays in addition to the features of G-LeafTM. This glass substrate can protect perovskite solar cells from UV rays.

Coating

We offer various coatings contributing to improvement on long-term stability and power generation ability of perovskite solar cells. By combining our glass substrate and high-functional coating, we offer custom-made product to meet your requirements.

ITO Coating

Transparent electrode is indispensable for perovskite solar cells. Our ITO coating has excellent transparency and electrical conductivity.

UV Cut Coating

Ultraviolet(UV) rays degrade long-term stability of perovskite solar cells. Our UV cut coating effectively protects perovskite solar cells from UV rays.

AR Coating

Anti-reflection(AR) coating contributes to efficient power generation of perovskite solar cells. A wide variety of coating design, from high transmittance to ultra-high transmittance is available.

Other Coatings

We offer other coatings such as metallization with high reflectance(metallized mirror), dielectric coating(half mirror), etc.
