Problems solved by technology

Therefore, the traditional cadmium telluride thin-film solar cell directly forms a metal back electrode layer on the surface of the cadmium telluride light-absorbing layer, so that a good ohmic contact cannot be formed between the cadmium telluride light-absorbing layer and the back electrode layer, which will affect the thin-film battery. performance is adversely affected
Furthermore, if the traditional metal back electrode layer is used, the cadmium telluride thin-film solar cell cannot be made into a light-transmissive thin-film solar cell.

Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of solar cells and discloses a cadmium telluride thin-film solar cell and a manufacturing method. The cadmium telluride thin-film solar cell comprises a front substrate, a barrier layer, a transparent conductive layer, a buffer layer, an n-type semiconductor layer, a p-type semiconductor layer, an intrinsic or p-type cadmium telluride layer, a contact layer and a back-electrode layer. The back-electrode layer comprises a cadmium telluride film layer, a silver or silver alloy or gold or gold alloy film layer and a transparent conductive oxide film layer, and the cadmium telluride film layer is directly in contact with the contact layer. Fill factors of the cadmium telluride thin-film solar cell can be improved by using the back-electrode layer including the silver or silver alloy or gold or gold alloy film layer.
