Die CdTe-Duennschichtsolarzelle - verbesserter Rueckenkontakt

Description: Das Projekt "Die CdTe-Duennschichtsolarzelle - verbesserter Rueckenkontakt" wird vom Umweltbundesamt gefördert und von ANTEC Angewandte Neue Technologien GmbH durchgeführt. General Information: The project has the aim to increase the efficiency of CdTe thin film solar modules at assured stability by developing a new, low resistance, stable back-contact suited for mass production and to demonstrate the feasibility of a stable efficiency of 13 per cent for modules of 30 x 30 cm2 size. This goal shall be achieved through development of a back contacting process by study and variation of 'classical' and new contact materials (such as low bandage, p+-semiconductors), doping and deposition processes in a cyclic two-step iteration procedure, narrowing-down of the different options and techniques to one final procedure under continuous experimental and theoretical analysis, diagnosis and testing. This shall be performed by a consortium including a SME-type industrial company and six European research institutions, well equipped and experienced with development, analysis and modeling of the CdTe thin film solar cell from work done in part within past cooperative projects. It is expected to realise a technology for production of significantly improved CdTe modules of stable efficiency of 13 per cent. The results will be exploited by the industrial partner in a production plant to be built in Germany able to manufacture 60 x 120 cm2 size modules at a capacity of 100 000 m2 per year.
