A group of scientists at Stanford University have made ​​a great advance in the field of solar cells. They have created the first flexible solar cells that can be stuck to almost any surface of any kind of material, either glass, plastic or even paper. To remove the adhesive enough to take a little water.
While similar cells have been created previously, always ended deforming them, but in this case it is not. These new cells can be bent and adapted to curved surfaces and even serve to recharge all types of devices and electronic gadgets
It is worth mentioning also that the manufacturing process of these cells also reduces costs and avoids the complications of some conventional processes.
