Problems solved by technology

[0010] (3) Alkali metal doping after the deposition of CIGS absorption layer on flexible substrates requires two processes, and requires a long return time, and the complex and time-consuming process is not conducive to large-scale production
[0011] Since some alkali metal materials are easy to absorb water during the addition process, this will cause some hydrogen selenide to be generated during the doping process of alkali metals. After opening the cavity, if excessive hydrogen selenide is inhaled, it will easily cause poisoning symptoms and cause safety problems.
