CHEMICALLY PROCESSED CDTE THIN FILMS FOR POTENTIAL

Chisinau thin film solar module glass

In thin-film solar technology, a large glass panel forms the base material, on which a relatively thin layer of 1 to 2 μm of photoactive compound is applied. Amongst others, alloys consisting of copper, indium, gallium and selenium or sulfur (CIGS), compounds of cadmium and tellurium (CdTe) or thin silicon layers are used in this process.
