Problems solved by technology

[0003] At present, there are two main methods for the preparation of non-vacuum printing CIGS coating slurry or colloid. First, the chemical synthesis method is used to prepare CIGS nanomaterials and further modulate them into slurry. However, the purity of chemically synthesized CIGS is low, and the prepared CIGS film has a low carrier life. Low, so the battery efficiency of this kind of absorption layer is relatively low at present; second, use four kinds of elemental powders or several kinds of two ternary compound powders to formulate coating raw materials, this kind of slurry will form a quaternary compound when the film is formed and further reacts The reaction is difficult to control. Insufficient reaction will cause component mismatch. At the same time, high reaction temperature will easily cause a large loss of selenium components, so the quality of the prepared CIGS film is poor.
[0004] In addition, the preparation of CIGS thin films with gradual band gaps is beneficial to improve the conversion efficiency of the light-absorbing layer of thin films. However, the current printing and preparation of CIGS thin films is limited to the preparation method of CIGS materials, and most of them are single fixed component CIGS, which is not conducive to the preparation of high-efficiency batteries.
