Bet on solar cells, Applied Technology into the industry with innovative new impetus
Applied Materials entered the rapid development of the PV solar photovoltaic equipment market, to the ,hp 372772-001 battery,hp 398876-001 battery,hp 417066-001 battery manufacturers to provide technology and services to help produce more of its battery energy.
The semiconductor equipment suppliers, today announced that will provide a flat panel and semiconductor industries from the manufacture of tools, technologies and processes and innovative ways to enable battery manufacturers can improve the conversion efficiency and output, thus helping the user to use solar cells to reduce the overall cost .
Applied Materials Inc. CEO Mike Splinter said that they believe that solar cell industry is at a turning point. With the global demand for energy is growing, the total value of solar energy equipment market in 2010 will reach 3 billion U.S. dollars, three times now. Thus, in recent years, net of their traditional semiconductor slow growth, the solar photovoltaic equipment, the company will become a new growth engine.
May 2006, Applied Materials acquired is located in Longmont, Colorado specializing in the production of PVD equipment, Applied Films Corporation, a formal declaration of solar energy equipment to enter the city? = Pplied Films Min technology, coupled with its own PECVD equipment and technology, Applied Materials the company will make PV solar cell manufacturers to scale of production of 20-40 MW from the current to the level of billions of watts.
Applied Materials to provide the processing technology of these materials, processes and services, for crystalline silicon solar cells and thin-film solar cell production will play a supporting role.
In Dresden at the International Photovoltaic Science and Engineering Conference (PVSEC) on, Applied Material on display the first PV products. At the same time, from the Hahn-Meitner Institute scientists announced that they have solar cells on the coating technology has been improved, the improved coating technology is used in CIS (Copper Indium Disulfide) rather than silicon hp 346970-001 battery,hp 367759-001 battery,hp f2024a battery, thus reducing the demand for silicon and drive the price of PV solar cells decreased.
Japanese vehicle lithium-ion battery into the practical phase
With the reduced fuel costs and rising environmental requirements, in the auxiliary battery with a higher energy density lithium-ion battery to replace lead and nickel-metal hydride batteries used in automotive field, is becoming a core technology.
Compared to the current hybrid cars mainly for the nickel-hydrogen batteries per liter at about 250 watts of energy density, lithium-ion battery energy density of 350 Wh. Unit weight of the energy density of 150 watt hours per kilogram, in order to double the nickel-hydrogen batteries. This shows that the use of lithium-ion batteries for electric vehicles will enable smaller and lighter.
Electric vehicles equipped with lithium-ion battery that can extend the operating distance, and rapid charging, in the city in cars can also be widely used. Tokyo Electric Power Co. to purchase from Fuji Heavy Industries Ltd. of 3,000 electric vehicles as company cars, travel 80 km distance, 15-minute fast charge, the main reason is to use a lithium-ion battery.
Kanagawa Prefecture is located in Sagamihara City, NEC LAMILION ENERGY company has production of electric vehicles with lithium-ion batteries, the company’s lithium-ion battery with manganese, carbon anode, the electrolyte is not water. Such as mobile phones and laptop computers used lithium-ion batteries, cathode with cobalt, and manganese is not only cheap but also because of the structure are in place between the columns of manganese, it can guarantee the stability of charge. In addition, as a result of rolling thin film of non-cylindrical shape, so the heat has a good performance hp 346970-001 battery,hp 367759-001 battery,hp f2024a battery.
This 200-volt battery charging voltage of 15 minutes to reach 80 percent capacity. Hybrid vehicle, whether or electric vehicles will eventually be using lithium-ion battery. Research and development costs will be reduced in volume when the digestion, but there is no security issues.
The life of lithium-ion battery charge and discharge by the time to grasp the reliability of aging test, the battery of a nickel-metal hydride to the shortcomings of short battery life will be extended to ten years life. Fuji Heavy Industries Ltd. of Tokyo Electric Power Company with targeted production of lithium-ion batteries for electric vehicles, a module from 16 modules, each module containing 12 components of 13 amps.
Mitsubishi Motors Corporation in 1999 to use lithium-ion batteries on fast charge repeatedly, 24-hour run 2000 kilometers away. Present per kilogram of lithium-ion battery can run 1 km, by 2010, 150 kilograms of lithium-ion batteries will be able to run 260 km.
Now the Japanese domestic production of light electric vehicles only a model, the vast majority of the two-wheelers, electric cars was 300. Lithium-ion battery in this decade, performance has doubled, the price dropped by half. With the drastic decrease of the cost and performance of a substantial increase, and the various car manufacturers started to really put into use lithium-ion battery.
As a model, from the Japan Automobile Research Institute in July this year, Ueda City, Nagano Prefecture, and the hot spring area in the two rounds of the station and four-wheel electric vehicles to transport guests, and will spend six months to promote hp 372772-001 battery,hp 398876-001 battery,hp 417066-001 battery the use of electric vehicles.
