Abstract:
The present invention discloses a transparent solar cell system, which comprises: a light-permeable solar energy conversion device, balance units and conductive wires. The light-permeable solar energy conversion device has a transparent photovoltaic element, which is a PN semiconductor structure formed of two transparent conductive films. The transparent conductive films are respectively made of different oxides. The substrate of the transparent solar cell system is made of a common glass or a common plastic; therefore, the transparent solar cell system of the present invention is lightweight and environment-friendly. Further, the present invention has a simple fabrication process and a low fabrication cost; therefore, the present invention can be extensively applied to the windows and doors of buildings and vehicles and benefits the popularization of solar energy.
Abstract:
The device concerns measuring the propagation and bending losses that take place in the individual mode of the multi-mode waveguide. The method applied is a new one comprising butt-couple and prism-couple together with phase-modulation method. Electrodes are made on the waveguide, and applied with voltage. The electro-optical effect is used to modulate the effective length of the waveguide in forming a Fabry-Perot etalon. From here, the contrast of the butt-couple's output and the loss can be measured. At the same time, as the prism-couple is able to separate the multiple modes individually, and measure the contrast and loss of each mode through every output mode which are then compared with the butt-couple, each mode's propagation and bending losses values of the multi-mode waveguide can be derived.
