Fabrication and Characterization of Thin Film Solar Cell Made from CuIn0.75Ga0.25S2 Wurtzite Nanoparticles

الملخص EN

CuIn0.75Ga0.25S2 (CIGS) thin film solar cells have been successfully fabricated using CIGS Wurtzite phase nanoparticles for the first time.

The structure of the cell is Glass/Mo/CIGS/CdS/ZnO/ZnO:Al/Ag.

The light absorption layer is made from CIGS Wurtzite phase nanoparticles that are formed from single-source precursors through a microwave irradiation.

The Wurtzite phase nanoparticles were converted to Chalcopyrite phase film through a single-step annealing process in the presence of argon and sulfur at 450°C.

The solar cell made from Wurtzite phase nanoparticles showed 1.6% efficiency and 0.42 fill factor.
