The Role Of Cadmium Oxide Within The Thin Films Of The Buffer Cds Aimed At Solar Cells Based Upon CIGS Films Fabrication
نویسندگان
چکیده
High quality Cadmium Sulphide thin films were grown on directly heated substrates of commercial glass by means of Modified Chemical Bath Deposition. Structural and optical properties of the obtained films were achieved. The impact of heat treatment in air at 450°C for one hour reveals the apparition of nano films of Cadmium Oxide on the surface of these buffer layers, which decreases dramatically the optical performance of the annealed films of CdS.

متن کاملPerformance and Loss Analyses of High-Efficiency CBD-ZnS/Cu(In1-xGax)Se2 Thin-Film Solar Cells
Chemically deposited ZnS has been investigated as a buffer layer alternative to CdS in polycrystalline thin-film Cu(In1-xGax)Se2 (CIGS) solar cells. Cells with efficiency of up to 18.1 % based on CBD-ZnS/CIGS heterostructures have been fabricated. This paper presents the performance and loss analyses of these cells based on the current-voltage (J-V) and spectral response curves, as well as comp...
