Problems solved by technology

However, the CdTe layer thickness of the commonly used cadmium telluride (CdTe) thin film solar cells is 3 microns to 8 microns. The element Te is a rare element, and the material is rare and expensive, resulting in high production costs of cadmium telluride (CdTe) thin film solar cells. A major factor limiting its development

Abstract

The invention discloses a cadmium-telluride film solar cell, and the cell comprises a substrate. The substrate is provided with a laminated film, and the laminated film sequentially comprises a transparent conductive film, a window layer, a light absorption layer, a back contact layer, a back reflection layer and a back electrode layer from the bottom to the top. The window layer is a cadmium sulfide film layer, and the light absorption layer is a cadmium telluride film layer. The back contact layer is a cuprous thiocyanate film layer, and the back reflection layer is a silver thin layer. The cell reduces the thickness of the light absorption layer on the basis of guaranteeing the absorption efficiency of sunlight, reduces the consumption of Te raw materials, reduces the production cost, and is high in feasibility of batch growth.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of solar cells, in particular to a cadmium telluride thin-film solar cell and a preparation method. Background technique [0002] Driven by the requirements of society, environment, energy and sustainable development, the promotion and application of new energy has become a global consensus. Solar energy, as the most important renewable energy in new energy, occupies an important position in the future development. Thin-film solar cells mainly include amorphous silicon, cadmium telluride, copper indium gallium selenide, and dye-sensitized materials. Due to the low consumption of materials, there is a consensus that there is a large space for cost reduction, and it is increasingly favored by countries all over the world. Much attention. [0003] Among them, the cadmium telluride (CdTe) thin film solar cell is mainly composed of a light absorbing layer CdTe layer and a window layer CdS layer, and the light a...
