Organization Consolidation And Presentation Of Financial Statements [Abstract]
ORGANIZATION	NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION The Company is focusing on integrating its PV products into high value markets such as aerospace, satellites, near earth orbiting vehicles, and fixed wing unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV). The value proposition of Ascent’s proprietary solar technology not only aligns with the needs of customers in these industries, but also overcomes many of the obstacles other solar technologies face in these unique markets. Ascent has the capability to design and develop finished products for end users in these areas as well as collaborate with strategic partners to design and develop custom integrated solutions for products like fixed-wing UAVs. Ascent sees significant overlap of the needs of end users across some of these industries and can achieve economies of scale in sourcing, development, and production in commercializing products for these customers.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
BASIS OF PRESENTATION	NOTE 2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying, unaudited, condensed consolidated financial statements have been derived from the accounting records of Ascent Solar Technologies, Inc. and Ascent Solar (Asia) Pte. Ltd. (collectively, the “Company") as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, and the results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020. Ascent Solar (Asia) Pte. Ltd. is wholly owned by Ascent Solar Technologies, Inc. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. The accompanying, unaudited, condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, these interim financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes typically found in U.S. GAAP audited annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair statement have been included. The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2020 has been derived from the audited financial statements as of that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. These condensed consolidated financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2021.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTI

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES	6 Months Ended

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES	NOTE 3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The Company’s significant accounting policies were described in Note 3 to the audited financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. There have been no significant changes to our accounting policies as of June 30, 2021. Derivatives: The Company evaluates its financial instruments under FASB ASC 815, "Derivatives and Hedging" to determine whether the instruments contain an embedded derivative. When an embedded derivative is present, the instrument is evaluated for a fair value adjustment upon issuance and at the end of every reporting period. Any adjustments to fair value are treated as gains and losses in fair values of derivatives and are recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Refer to Notes 8, 10 and 11 for further discussion on the embedded derivatives of each instrument. Paycheck Protection Program Loan: The Company has elected to account for the forgivable loan received under the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) provisions of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (“CARES”) Act as a debt instrument and to accrue interest on the outstanding loan balance. Additional interest at a market rate (due to the stated interest rate of the PPP loan being below market) is not imputed, as the transactions where interest rates prescribed by governmental agencies are excluded from the scope of accounting guidance on imputing interest. The proceeds from the loan will remain recorded as a liability until either (1) the loan is, in part or wholly, forgiven and the Company has been legally released or (2) the Company repays the loan to the lender. Refer to Note 15 for further discussion. Earnings per Share: Earnings per share (“EPS”) are the amount of earnings attributable to each share of common stock. Basic EPS has been computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Income available to common stockholders has been computed by deducting dividends accumulated for the period on cumulative preferred stock (whether or not earned) from net income. Diluted earnings per share has been computed by dividing net income adjusted on an if-converted basis for the period by the weighted average number of common shares and potentially dilutive common share outstanding (which consist of options and convertible securities using the treasury stock method or the if-converted method, as applicable, to the extent they are dilutive). Net income (loss) for purposes of computing diluted EPS was $456,486 and $2,353,444 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. There were approximately 145 billion and approximately 60 billion dilutive common shares for the six months ended June 30, 2021, and 2020, respectively. Recently Adopted or to be Adopted Accounting Policies In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06, Debt - Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging Contracts in Entity s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity s Own Equity Other new pronouncements issued but not effective as of June 30, 2021 are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

Liquidity And Continued Operations [Abstract]
LIQUIDITY, CONTINUED OPERATIONS, AND GOING CONCERN	NOTE 4. LIQUIDITY, CONTINUED OPERATIONS, AND GOING CONCERN During the six months ended June 30, 2021 and the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company entered into multiple financing agreements to fund operations. Further discussion of these transactions can be found in Notes 9, 10, 11 and 14 of the financial statements presented as of, and for, the six months ended June 30, 2021, and in Notes 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 15 and 22 of the financial statements included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. The Company has continued limited PV production at its manufacturing facility. The Company does not expect that sales revenue and cash flows will be sufficient to support operations and cash requirements until it has fully implemented its product strategy. During the six months ended June 30, 2021 the Company used $4,213,354 in cash for operations. Additional projected product revenues are not anticipated to result in a positive cash flow position for the next twelve months overall and, as of June 30, 2021, the Company has a deficit in working capital of $780,902. As such, cash liquidity is not sufficient for the next twelve months and will require additional financing. As a result of the Company’s recurring losses from operations and the need for additional financing to fund its operating and capital requirements, there is uncertainty regarding the Company’s ability to maintain liquidity sufficient to operate its business effectively, which raises doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company scaled down its operations in 2019 and 2020, due to cash flow issues, and does not expect to ramp up significantly until sufficient financing is obtained. Management cannot provide any assurances that the Company will be successful in accomplishing any of its plans. These condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT The following table summarizes property, plant and equipment as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020: As of June 30, As of December 31, 2021 2020 Furniture, fixtures, computer hardware and computer software $ 527,862 $ 489,421 Manufacturing machinery and equipment 24,453,700 24,377,755 Depreciable property, plant and equipment 24,981,562 24,867,176 Less: Accumulated depreciation and amortization (24,853,856 ) (24,848,408 ) Net property, plant and equipment $ 127,706 $ 18,768 The Company analyzes its long-lived assets for impairment, both individually and as a group, whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. Depreciation expense for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 was $2,724 and $43,849, respectively. Depreciation expense for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 was $5,448 and $87,698, respectively. Depreciation expense is recorded under “Depreciation and amortization expense” in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. On July 29, 2020 the Company’s owned facility at 12300 Grant Street, Thornton, CO 80241 (the “Building”) was foreclosed by the Building’s first lien holder (“Mortgage Holder”) and sold at public auction. The successful bidder for the Building was the Mortgage Holder, at the price of $7.193 million. As a result, the Company’s obligations to Mortgage Holder and all of the Company’s outstanding real property taxes on the Building were considered fully repaid.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUN_2

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Policies)	6 Months Ended
	Jun. 30, 2021
Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Derivatives	Derivatives: The Company evaluates its financial instruments under FASB ASC 815, "Derivatives and Hedging" to determine whether the instruments contain an embedded derivative. When an embedded derivative is present, the instrument is evaluated for a fair value adjustment upon issuance and at the end of every reporting period. Any adjustments to fair value are treated as gains and losses in fair values of derivatives and are recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Refer to Notes 8, 10 and 11 for further discussion on the embedded derivatives of each instrument.
Paycheck Protection Program Loan	Paycheck Protection Program Loan: The Company has elected to account for the forgivable loan received under the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) provisions of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (“CARES”) Act as a debt instrument and to accrue interest on the outstanding loan balance. Additional interest at a market rate (due to the stated interest rate of the PPP loan being below market) is not imputed, as the transactions where interest rates prescribed by governmental agencies are excluded from the scope of accounting guidance on imputing interest. The proceeds from the loan will remain recorded as a liability until either (1) the loan is, in part or wholly, forgiven and the Company has been legally released or (2) the Company repays the loan to the lender. Refer to Note 15 for further discussion.
Earnings Per Share	Earnings per Share: Earnings per share (“EPS”) are the amount of earnings attributable to each share of common stock. Basic EPS has been computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Income available to common stockholders has been computed by deducting dividends accumulated for the period on cumulative preferred stock (whether or not earned) from net income. Diluted earnings per share has been computed by dividing net income adjusted on an if-converted basis for the period by the weighted average number of common shares and potentially dilutive common share outstanding (which consist of options and convertible securities using the treasury stock method or the if-converted method, as applicable, to the extent they are dilutive). Net income (loss) for purposes of computing diluted EPS was $456,486 and $2,353,444 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. There were approximately 145 billion and approximately 60 billion dilutive common shares for the six months ended June 30, 2021, and 2020, respectively.
Recently Adopted or to be Adopted Accounting Policies	Recently Adopted or to be Adopted Accounting Policies In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06, Debt - Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging Contracts in Entity s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity s Own Equity Other new pronouncements issued but not effective as of June 30, 2021 are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
