Patent

CA 2628122

A new generation solar cell is disclosed that absorbs radiated sunlight across a wide spectrum of wavelengths using a glass-metal twin tube assembly exhibiting photonic to electric conversion and thermal absorption simultaneously. More specifically, the twin tube solar cell assembly consists in a metallic tube inserted into a glass tube coated with a dye-sensitized semiconductor electrode and space between twin tubes filled with suitable electrolyte. Sunlight radiate through the glass tubes onto the dyed semiconductor which absorb the photonic and thermal energy. The photonic energy is converted to useful electric energy while the thermal energy is conducted through to the metal tube by heat transfer. The thermal energy is extracted by a fluid or gas circulating in the inner metal tube.
