Flexible thin film solar cells such as CIGS, CdTe, and a-Si: H have received worldwide
attention. Until now, Si solar cells dominate the photovoltaic market. Its production cost is a …

The successful isolation of phosphorene (atomic layer thick black phosphorus) in 2014 has
currently aroused the interest of 2D material researchers. In this review, first, the …

Bandgap gradient is a proven approach for improving the open-circuit voltages (VOCs) in
Cu (In, Ga) Se2 and Cu (Zn, Sn) Se2 thin-film solar cells, but has not been realized in Cd …

The origin of voltage deficits in polycrystalline cadmium selenide telluride (CdSeTe) solar
cells is unclear. Here, we present a comprehensive voltage loss analysis performed on state …

Sublimated thin-film CdTe photovoltaic devices with conversion efficiencies over 18% and a
fill-factor greater than 79% have been repeatedly obtained using high-rate fabrication …

Abstract Magnesium-doped Zinc Oxide (MZO) films have recently been proposed as a
transparent buffer layer for thin film CdTe solar cells. In this study, the band gap of MZO …

Among thin-film photovoltaic technology, cadmium telluride (CdTe) has achieved a truly
impressive development that can commercially compete with silicon, which is still the king of …

CdTe thin film solar cells have demonstrated efficiencies over 20%, but CdTe has a
somewhat higher band gap than optimal for single-junction terrestrial solar-cell power …

Incorporation of CdSe layers into CdTe thin film solar cells has recently emerged as a route
to improve cell performance. It has been suggested that the formation of lower band gap …

Commercial CdTe PV modules have polycrystalline thin films deposited on glass, and
devices made in this format have exceeded 22% efficiency. Devices made by the authors …
