Thin-film solar cell technology has settled on three semiconductors: CdTe, CuInSe2 and a-Si:H. Cells with these materials have reached efficiencies above 10%. The commercial adoption of these materials signifies their readiness for near-term applications. Efficiency will remain the technology driver for large-scale, utility applications.

Thin-film solar cells: An overview
Renewable Energy, 1996Abstract Thin-film solar cells offer the most promising options for substantially reducing the cost of photovoltaic systems. A multiplicity of options, in terms of materials and devices, are currently being developed worldwide. Some of the leading contenders are: amorphous and polycrystalline silicon, compound semiconductor thin films such as CuInSe ...

Thin film solar cell materials
Applied Surface Science, 1993Photovoltaic energy conversion is based upon the generation of charge carriers by absorption of light and on their local separation in semiconductor junctions. The necessary thickness of the absorbing layer has to correspond with the lengths across which photogenerated carriers are collected.

Thin film heterojunction solar cells
Materials Chemistry, 1979Abstract After an introduction about the parameters which are important in the fabrication of thin film heterojunction solar cells, some methods of in vacuum deposition of thin films are discussed. A multi source evaporation method which was developed in our laboratory and which allowed us to obtain low resistivity films of CdS, CdZnS and CdTe, is ...

The Future of Thin Film Solar Cells
2008The photovoltaic market is presently dominated by solar cell modules based on the use of crystalline and poly-crystalline silicon wafers. Although this approach produces a robust and reliable technology with still a large remaining potential for cost reduction, thin-film approaches, which eliminate the use of expensive and material intensive silicon ...
