Abstract

The invention discloses a CuInSe2-based thin film solar cell, which comprises a substrate, a metal anode, a reflecting layer, a photoelectric conversion layer and a transparent conductive layer in sequence, wherein the reflecting layer comprises CuAlSe2/CuAlxGa(1-x)Se2/CuGaSe2 films in sequence; the photoelectric conversion layer comprises CuIn(1-m)GamSe2/CuInSe(2-y)Sy/Cu(1-a)ZnaInSe(2-b)Sb films; and the transparent conductive layer comprises CdS/i-ZnO/AZO films. In the invention, the photoelectric conversion layer and the reflecting layer are constructed by adopting multilayer film and gradient film technologies; and a better p-n energy band structure can be formed by adjusting and controlling the bottom of a conduction band and a value band edge through interlayer charge migration, so that the long wave response of devices and the collection efficiency of current carriers can be improved and further the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the devices can be improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of solar cells, in particular to CuInSe 2 based thin film solar cells. Background technique [0002] At present, commercialized solar cells mainly include: silicon-based wafer cells, thin-film solar cells and gallium arsenide-based concentrator solar cells, among which CuInSe 2 Because of its low production cost, high conversion efficiency, good low-light performance, strong radiation resistance, no light-induced degradation, and the ability to deposit on flexible substrates, thin-film solar cells are internationally known as "the most promising solar cell in the next era." Promising new thin-film solar cells". [0003] CuInSe 2 The structural development of base thin-film solar cells has mainly gone through three stages. In 1976, Kazmerski and others prepared the first CuInSe 2 Thin film solar cell, its structure is: glass substrate / Mo electrode / low resistance CuInSe 2 / High resistance CuInSe 2 / hig...
