Abstract

This study presents a photovoltaic fiber structure which generates electricity by using solar energy. Polymer based materials were used to develop photovoltaic effect on flexible fibers. The photoelectrical parameters including short-circuit current density, open-circuit voltage and fill factor were measured to determine the power conversion efficiency of photovoltaic fibers. This structure of photovoltaic fiber may be used to generate power for small electrical devices in smart textile products after further optimization.
