UniSolar solar panels uses Triple Junction amorphous thin film silicon cell technology, resulting in a robust and durable but flexible and light-weight cell. Modules are encapsulated in UV-stabilized polmers (includes EVA and fluoropolymer Tefzel similar to Teflon), framed with anodized aluminum, and backed with Galvalume steel for stiffness.

Bypass diodes are connected across each cell, allowing modules to continue to produce power when partially shaded. Compared to mono- and poly-crystalline modules, amorphous modules are virtually unbreakable and tolerant of both heat and shade.
