Polycrystalline Thin Film Photovoltaic Technology

Polycrystalline Thin Film Photovoltaic Technology

Research output: Contribution to conference › Paper

Abstract

Low-cost, high-efficiency thin-film modules are an exciting photovoltaic technology option for generating cost-effective electricity in 1995 and beyond. In this paper we review the significant technical progress made in the following thin films: copper indium diselenide, cadmium telluride, and polycrystalline thin silicon films. Also, the recent U.S. DOE/SERI initiative to commercialize theseemerging technologies is discussed.
