The video tutorial explains the process of creating flexible solar panels. It begins with the use of a silicon dioxide wafer, followed by the deposition of thin film solar cells on a nickel layer. A protective polymer and thermal release tape are applied, making the solar cells ready to peel from the wafer. The resulting flexible solar panels can be adhered to various surfaces, such as cell phones and streetlights.
