TED (Quantum Dot Solar Cell Technology)

TED in Quantum Dot Solar Cell Technology refers to a process called Tunneling Enhanced Deposition, which improves how quantum dots—tiny semiconductor particles—are integrated into solar cells. Quantum dots can convert sunlight into electricity more efficiently than traditional materials because their size allows tuning to different light wavelengths. TED helps deposit these quantum dots uniformly onto the solar cell surface, enhancing charge transfer and reducing energy losses. This leads to higher power conversion efficiency and potentially more affordable, flexible, and lightweight solar panels, making solar energy more viable and efficient for a variety of applications.
