Chinese scientist Pan Jingong has developed a solar-powered "power generation glass," also known as a cadmium telluride thin-film solar cell. This solar cell is based on insulating ordinary glass and evenly smears cadmium telluride photovoltaic thin films that are only 4 microns thick, thus making a conductive, power-generating semiconductor material! A 2 square meter "power generation glass" can generate 260-270 kWh of electricity each year. Five to six such glasses can meet the average household's electricity consumption for a year, and "power generation glass" has a useful life of 30 years. What is even more powerful is that this kind of “power generation glass†can now be mass-produced, producing an area of ​​1.92 square meters of power generation glass for only 55 seconds. Cadmium telluride (CdTe) is a crystalline material synthesized from cadmium and tellurium, and cadmium telluride can also form an HgCdTe alloy with mercury, which can be applied to sensitized materials of infrared detectors. Radon is a rare element on the earth. The primary issue facing the development of cadmium telluride thin-film solar cells is whether the earth's thorium reserves can meet the industrial scale production and application of cadmium telluride solar cell modules. In the past, germanium was in the form of associated mineral by-products of copper, lead, zinc and other mines. In industry, germanium was mainly recovered from electrolytic copper or smelting zinc scrap, namely slag, and slag anode slime and other wastes. Form exists. According to relevant reports, there are currently 149,000 tons of earthworms known on earth, of which China has 22,000 tons and the United States has 25,000 tons. Although 130-140 kilograms of yttrium can meet the production needs of 1MW cadmium telluride thin-film solar cells, the reserves with silicon cannot be compared at all. It is reported that cadmium telluride thin-film solar cells contain cadmium, a heavy metal element, which is a toxic substance. Some users have also been concerned that cadmium telluride used in power generation glass will cause harm to the human body. According to related sources, cadmium telluride is a very stable compound, and it is sealed between two pieces of glass to enhance the safety of use.
