Automated shape-transformable self-solar-tracking tessellated crystalline Si solar cells using in-situ shape-memory-alloy actuation

Abstract Photovoltaic energy systems in urban situations need to achieve both high electricity production and high capacity in restricted installation areas. To maximize power output, solar-tracking systems tilt solar arrays to track the sun’s position, and typically flat modules are used to maximiz...
