摘要:
A thin film photovoltaic device on a substrate is being realized by a method for manufacturing a p-i-n junction semiconductor layer stack with a p-type microcrystalline silicon layer, a p-type amorphous silicon layer, a buffer silicon layer comprising preferably intrinsic amorphous silicon, an intrinsic type amorphous silicon layer, and an n-type silicon layer over the intrinsic type amorphous silicon layer.
摘要:
Micromorph tandem cells with stabilized efficiencies of 11.0% have been achieved on as-grown LPCVD ZnO front TCO at bottom cell thickness of just 1.3 μm in combination with an antireflection concept. Applying an advanced LPCVD ZnO front TCO stabilized tandem cells of 10.6% have been realized at a bottom cell thickness of only 0.8 μm. Implementing intermediate reflectors in Micromorph tandem cell devices allow for, compared to commercial SnO2, reduced optical losses when LPCVD ZnO is used. At present highest stabilized cell efficiency reached 11.3% incorporating an in-situ intermediate reflector with a bottom cell thickness of 1.6 μm.

摘要:
The present invention provides an improved thin film solar cell, wherein at least one additional resistive transparent conductive oxide (TCO) layer is incorporated into the solar cell. The additional resistive TCO electrically separates the conductive TCO layers acting as electrodes of such a cell and thus decreases or prevents performance losses. Furthermore, methods for the production of such solar cells are disclosed.

There is provided a method of coating a substrate with a zinc oxide film. The method includes (a) providing a substrate with at least one substantially flat surface, (b) subjecting the surface at least partially to a plasma-etching process, and (c) depositing on the etched surface, a layer that includes zinc oxide. The method is particularly suitable for manufacturing solar cells.
