Problems solved by technology

But these preparation methods all have certain defectives, mainly show in: (1) the waste liquid that water-bath method produces, not only discharge amount is big simultaneously in the processing cost of environmental safety and security aspect is higher and has very big impact on environment; (2) uses The film is prepared by sputtering, and the controllability of the target composition is low. At the same time, in the process of depositing the film, sputtering damage is easy to occur on the film surface; (3) when using the co-evaporation method, it is necessary to consider the working distance Larger coating area can be effectively obtained only when placed at an angle, but the composition uniformity is poor, the material yield is low (<30%), and the maintenance cost is high, so it cannot be used in mass production
[0004] So far, no effective large-area evaporation and low-cost method has been proposed

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of preparation of thin-film solar cells, in particular to a large-size substrate evaporation device and a method for preparing a CdTe solar coating by using the evaporation device. Background technique [0002] Thin-film solar cell is a kind of solar cell. It has the advantages of less material consumption and strong comprehensive power generation capacity. It can be combined with buildings or become a part of buildings, and has a wide range of applications. According to the difference of materials used in the photoelectric conversion layer, thin-film solar cells can be mainly divided into silicon-based thin-film solar cells, cadmium telluride (CdTe) thin-film solar cells and copper indium gallium selenide (CIGS) thin-film solar cells. Among them, CdTe thin-film solar cells have become one of the most popular thin-film solar cells because of their high light absorption rate, high conversion efficiency, stabl...
