ADVANCED HOLOGRAPHIC SOLAR MODULES
Prism Solar Technologies, Inc. manufactures a new type of photovoltaic module that uses transparent holographic optical elements in its design. This innovative, patented holographic technology, collects and spectrally selects useful wavelengths from the sun and focuses them onto the cell to create electricity.
Prism's solar concentration is achieved using a hologram imaged onto a transparent medium that is sealed between two pieces of glass.
The hologram is a patent protected, unique technology. Materials used are proven, time tested, and have multiple vendors, minimizing business risk.
The fundamental science and engineering behind Prism's baseline design are credible and well-understood.
The concept of using holographic concentration for solar applications has been discussed in the techical literature since 1981.
Prism's approach is both unique and workable, and the hologram design is well-suited for a variety of PV applications.
