Using a particle accelerator a machine that speeds up sub atomic particles to nearly the speed of light rayton solar slices up ultra precise pieces of silicon the key material used to make.
Solar panel particle accelerator.
A startup has created a method for using a particle accelerator to slice microscopically thin silicon wafers that reduce the cost to manufacture solar panels by more than 60 by eliminating waste.
It s a tall.
As it stands almost every solar panel is made by slicing a 200 micrometer thick 0 2mm.
Using particle accelerator technology to bring down the cost of solar panel manufacturing and hasten a transition of world energy usage to more of a reliance on solar installations.
