COMPOSITION MODULE OF THERMOELECTRIC DEVICE AND SOLAR CELL AND CO-GENERATING METHOD USING THE SAME

摘要

The present invention relates to a thermoelectric solar cell composite module and an electric power generating method using the same. The thermoelectric solar cell composite module of the present invention for achieving the purpose comprises a solar cell including an upper electrode and lower electrode, and a light absorbing layer arranged between the two electrodes, and penetrating a light within an infrared region and absorbing a light out of the infrared region to generate electricity; and a thermoelectric generating device arranged at the lower part of the solar cell and generating electricity using a radiation heat generated by being irradiated with the light within the infrared region penetrated the solar cell. According to the present invention, the solar cell absorbs sunlight out of the infrared region to generate electricity and the light within infrared region penetrated the solar cell and the electrodes is directly irradiated to the thermoelectric generating device, thus the thermoelectric generating device uses a heat generated by radiation of the irradiated sunlight to generate electricity to have an effect of maximizing the generating efficiency of the thermoelectric generating device.
