Title:
CDTE BASED THIN FILM SOLAR CELL DEVICE WITH DIFFUSION BARRIER LAYER AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING THEREOF
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2024/077583
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A CdTe based thin film solar cell device (10) and a method for manufacturing it in superstrate configuration are provided. The CdTe based thin film solar cell device (10) comprises a CdTe based absorber layer (13) comprising a first partial layer (131) being a selenium-rich CdTe layer, a second partial layer (133) having a smaller selenium content than the first partial layer (131), and a diffusion barrier layer (132) between the first partial layer (131) and the second partial layer (133). The diffusion barrier layer (132) is a layer having a band gap larger than that of the first partial layer (131) and a crystal structure differing from the crystal structure of the first partial layer (131). The method for manufacturing comprises a step of forming the CdTe based absorber layer (131), wherein this step comprises depositing a first layer, a second layer and a third layer and performing a thermal treatment after depositing all of these layers. As a result of the thermal treatment, the first partial layer (131) is formed from the first layer, the diffusion barrier layer (132) is formed from the second layer and the second partial layer (133) is formed from the third layer.
