Problems solved by technology

However, CIGS batteries have more than 20 phases, so the preparation of a single chalcopyrite phase poses a severe challenge. It requires precise and harsh on-line detection and subsequent heat treatment processes, which directly leads to the slow progress in the large-scale production of the battery.

Abstract

The invention discloses a perform-optimized cadmium telluride thin-film battery and a manufacturing method for the cadmium telluride thin-film battery, wherein the cadmium telluride thin-film battery comprises a substrate and an epitaxy lamination layer; the epitaxy layer lamination sequentially consists of a conducting layer, a window layer, a light-absorbing layer, a back barrier layer and a back electrode from the bottom up; the window layer is of a textured cadmium sulfide thin-film layer; the light-absorbing layer is of a cadmium telluride thin-film layer, the back barrier layer is of a zinc telluride / copper-doped zinc telluride composite layer or a mercury telluride / copper-doped mercury telluride composite thin-film layer, and the back electrode is of one or more of graphite slurry or graphene slurry thin-film layer or copper thin-film layer, nickel thin-film layer, copper-nickel alloy thin-film layer and molybdenum thin-film layer. According to the cadmium telluride thin-film battery provided by the invention, the window area is textured and an optical path of a light-transmitting area is reduced, and thus a light-absorbing capacity is further improved and the better light-trapping effect is realized.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of cadmium telluride thin film batteries, in particular to a cadmium telluride thin film battery and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Now, the world is facing the dual pressure of energy shortage and environmental protection. The inexhaustible clean energy solar energy is getting more and more attention. The energy emitted by the sun to the earth every second is as high as 8×10 10 Megawatt, equivalent to 6×10 9 tons of standard coal. At present, how to effectively use solar energy resources and the new technology revolution that may be triggered by this has made countries focus on solar cells. [0003] CdTe solar cells are a new generation of high-efficiency, low-cost, and large-scale industrially produced thin-film solar cells, and are known as one of the most promising solar cells. The thickness of the absorption layer of CdTe solar cells is only 1% of that of commercial sili...
