The latest advancements in solar technology have ushered in a new era of efficiency and performance, thanks to groundbreaking developments in production processes. These innovations have led to a significant increase in the active area of the new AMG-series, setting it apart from its predecessors. With a remarkable 20% boost in efficiency, the AMG-series now stands as one of the most efficient indoor amorphous solar cells available in the market today.
Two standout models in this series, the AMG-1401C and AMG-1701C, both built on glass substrates, boast a sleek 1.1-mm thin profile. These cells are capable of generating approximately 8μW/cm2 at 200 lux per active area, showcasing their impressive power output in indoor environments.
Despite their powerful performance, the external dimensions of these solar cells are only slightly larger than the active area. This design feature allows for optimal space utilization and material efficiency in various applications. For instance, the AMG-1401C, with external dimensions of 41.4 x 26.1 mm, can produce a maximum of 77.8μW at 200 lux, with a cell voltage of 2.2-V, making it compatible with a wide range of power management ICs available in the market.
The AMG-1401C and AMG-1701C Amorton solar cells not only excel in efficiency but also in aesthetics and cost-effectiveness, making them ideal for diverse energy harvesting applications. Their visually appealing design, coupled with high efficiency levels, positions them as top contenders for powering a variety of indoor and outdoor devices.
Renowned for their reliability and sustainability, Amorton solar cells have a proven track record in powering a multitude of applications, including IoT devices, watches, sensor nodes, asset trackers, and remote controls. These cells are adept at harvesting energy even in low light and artificial light settings, ensuring continuous and efficient power supply.
Robert Spiegler, Lead Product Manager Solution Business at Panasonic Industry, expressed his enthusiasm for the new indoor Amorton solar cell series, stating, "Our new indoor Amorton solar cell series sets new standards and represents a significant advancement in amorphous silicon solar cell technology.
