Abstract

PURPOSE:To supply electric power into an accumulator resulting in not only the prevention of the run-down of battery but also the utilization as the power source of the power consumed in an automobile, by forming the glass plate of the window of the car body as the substrate of a solar battery. CONSTITUTION:A thin film solar battery 2 is formed on one surface of a glass plate 1, and the glass plate 1 is used for the glass window of the rear part of the automobile 3 so that the side of this solar battery 2 is inside the car. The surface of the solar battery 2 is coated with e.g. a transparent or opaque protection film 4 constituted of synthetic resin. Electro motive forces are generated to the solar battery 2 by the light 5 incident from the car outside. The accumulator loaded on the automobile 3 is charged by this electro motive force. Thus, the battery run-down due to the self discharge of the battery can be prevented. The solar battery 2 can be provided on the window of the front or side part besides one of the rear part.

1. Storage batteries installed in automobiles and used as a power source for driving starter motors and lighting lights, etc., will self-discharge after a period of about two weeks and their remaining capacity will decrease, making it impossible to start the vehicle unless it is recharged. Such situations occur more often than expected and are a problem that cannot be ignored when using a car. In order to prevent this, the present applicant and others have already filed an application to mount a solar battery on the vehicle body and charge the storage battery with the electromotive force generated by sunlight or other light even when the engine of the vehicle is stopped.

This object is achieved by forming a solar cell by laminating a transparent conductive film, a semiconductor thin film having a photoelectric conversion active region, and an electrode film in order toward the inside of the vehicle on a transparent plate constituting the window of the vehicle.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. In Fig. 1, a thin film solar cell 2 is placed on one side of the glass plate l.
The glass plate 1 is used, for example, in the rear of a car 3 as shown in FIG. 2, with the solar cell 2 side facing inside the car.

An electromotive force is generated in the solar cell 2 by light 6 incident from outside the vehicle. This electromotive force charges a storage battery (not shown) mounted on the vehicle 3. This makes it possible to prevent so-called ``failure'' due to self-discharge of the battery. The solar cell 2 is not limited to the rear window as shown in FIG. 2, but may be installed in the front or side window.

Figures 4 and 5 show the structure of a thin film solar cell.
In the figure, for example, a Gf workpiece is placed on the glass plate 1.
A transparent conductive film 8 made of (indium tin oxide) is deposited, and an amorphous silicon film 9 formed by, for example, gua-discharge decomposition of silane gas is TfliMed thereon. Amorphous silicon film 94: A p-i-n structure is formed by adding, for example, Gf diborane and 7-osphine to silane gas at appropriate times during the glow discharge decomposition process. The electromotive force generated by the light incident on the photoelectric conversion active region through the glass plate 1 and the transparent conductive film 8 due to this p-i-n structure is the same as that of the metal provided on the opposite side of the transparent conductive film 8 and the silicon film. It is taken out from the electrode membrane 10 and the connected storage battery is charged. In FIG. 5, the opposite electrode of the conductive film 8 is also formed of a transparent conductive film 11. Therefore, in this case, some of the light that has passed through the solar cells enters the interior of the car. By selecting an arbitrary shape of such a structure or thin film, it is possible to form a solar cell as a translucent body or a light-shielding body with an aesthetic design, thereby providing comfort to the driver or passenger of a car. It can also be used to create an environment.

As described above, since the automotive solar cell according to the present invention is formed using the glass plate of the vehicle body as a substrate, it can supply power to the storage battery without making any major changes to any part of the vehicle body, and can be used to "start up". The effects of the present invention are extremely large, as it not only prevents the generation of electricity, but also can be used as a power source for the electricity consumed inside the car, and can also be used to improve the appearance and comfort of the car.
