WINDOW-INTEGRATED TRANSPARENT PHOTOVOLTAIC MODULE
An electricity generating window includes a first glass pane, a second glass pane, and a photovoltaic device formed on an inner surface of the first glass pane or an inner surface of the second glass pane. The photovoltaic device includes a first transparent electrode layer, a second transparent electrode layer, and one or more active layers configured to transmit visible light and absorb ultraviolet or near-infrared light. In some embodiments, the electricity generating window also includes a spacer configured to separate the first glass pane and the second glass pane by a cavity. In some embodiments, the electricity generating window also includes one or more functional layers, such as an electrochromic layer or a low-E layer for reflecting infrared light.
