Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of photovoltaic modules, and in particular relates to a colorful and soft photovoltaic module and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Soft photovoltaic modules have attracted more and more attention due to their soft, thin and beautiful features. With the continuous development of soft photovoltaic modules, people's demand for their color and visual experience is also increasing day by day. However, the mainstream cells currently used are mostly monocrystalline silicon cells, which are light blue and dark blue in color. After packaging, the color is black. The color is single, and it is impossible to prepare patterned soft photovoltaic modules, which seriously restricts the development of soft photovoltaic modules.

[0003] Photonic crystals are formed by three-dimensional orderly arrangement of microspheres. When light is incident on photonic crystals, due to the periodic structure of photonic crystals, the light diffracts or interferes, thereby reflecting light of a specific wavelength, which is Bragg reflection. At the same time, as the size of the microspheres and the distance of the lattice change, photonic crystals can reflect light from ultraviolet to infrared bands. When the reflected wavelength is within the visible light range, it can produce dazzling colors as a structural color. Compared with the colors presented by chemical pigments, the colors produced by this type of photonic crystal structure are more stable and lasting. As long as the structure itself is not destroyed, the color it presents will always be bright. At the same time, since it reflects light of a specific wavelength and does not affect the transmission of visible light, adding this type of photonic crystal pigment will not damage the power generation of photovoltaic modules. However, the average particle size of photonic crystals is between 100 and 200 um, and there is no way to make photonic crystal inks for pattern printing. Therefore, it is imperative to find a way to achieve patterning and colorization of soft photovoltaic modules without damaging the power of soft photovoltaic modules. Summary of the invention
