Abstract

Disclosed are a solar cell having a fan structure that provides a more pleasant life, convenience, and stability by forming, in a fan structure, a flexible colour solar cell applied with a carbon dioxide absorption material, and configuring the formed flexible colour solar cell through convergence of information technology, and an electronic application apparatus using the same. The electronic application apparatus using a solar cell as a power source includes: an application device body portion including a both side supporter fixed to ground, a transmitter including an antenna capable of transmitting power and data, and a data screen to thereby provide a predetermined service; and the solar cell provided in an upper end of the application device body portion, to colour using a predetermined wavelength of light, and to perform solar power generation using a remaining wavelength of light.

Claims

1. A solar cell having a fan structure, comprising:

at least two solar cell panels to colour using a predetermined wavelength of light, and to perform solar power generation using a remaining wavelength of light, wherein the at least two solar cell panels are spaced apart from each other and thereby are disposed in a fan structure for a venturi effect; and

a carbon dioxide absorption material, which is applied on the surface on which the at least two solar cell panels face each other,

wherein exterior air flows into a gap space of the fan structure, and carbon dioxide of the in-flown outside air is absorbed by the carbon dioxide absorption material.

2. The solar cell of claim 1, wherein the solar cell panel is any one of a dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC), an organic photovoltaic cell (OPV), an amorphous silicon solar cell, and an inorganic substance of a solar cell.

3. An electronic application apparatus that uses a solar cell as a power source, the apparatus comprising:

an application device body portion including a both side supporter fixed to ground, a transmitter including an antenna capable of transmitting power and data, and a data screen to thereby provide a predetermined service; and

the solar cell provided in an upper end of the application device body portion, to colour using a predetermined wavelength of light, and to perform solar power generation using a remaining wavelength of light.

4. The apparatus of claim 3,

wherein an application device body portion is at least one of a camera, a data receiver, a touch pad, and a light emitting diode (LED) lighting.

5. The apparatus of claim 3, further comprising:

a storage battery to charge predetermined voltage of power that is generated in the solar cell.

6. The apparatus of claim 3, wherein the solar cell is any one of a DSSC, an OPV, an amorphous silicon solar cell, and an inorganic substance of a solar cell.

7. The apparatus of claim 3, wherein:

the antenna is configured as a pair of spirals, and

the pair of spirals includes a transmitting spiral to transmit power and data, and a receiving spiral to receive the data.

8. The apparatus of claim 4, wherein the solar cell has a fan structure using a venturi effect that enables outside air to flow in.

9. The apparatus of claim 6, wherein a carbon dioxide absorption material is applied to the solar cell and absorbs carbon dioxide in the in-flown outside air.
