Crystalline and Thin Film Solar Panels | The Difference

While the solar industry has been around for decades, two types of silicon panel using new technology are emerging as the most viable options: thin-film solar cells and crystalline silicon

Thin-film solar cell

Thin-film solar cells are a type of solar cell made by depositing one or more thin layers (thin films or TFs) of photovoltaic material onto a substrate, such as glass, plastic or metal.

Monocrystalline, Polycrystalline, and Thin-Film

Thin-film panels are constructed from ultra-thin layers of photovoltaic materials, such as cadmium telluride or amorphous silicon, deposited
