研究目的
To enhance the open circuit voltage of CdTe solar cells by incorporating a thin layer of P-type tellurium between CdTe and the back contact to reduce the potential energy barrier and improve interface quality.
研究成果
Incorporating a thin layer of tellurium between CdTe and the aluminum electrode reduces the potential energy barrier, enhancing the open circuit voltage to 0.7 V. This approach offers a potential pathway to improve CdTe solar cell performance without CdCl2 treatment.
研究不足
The study reports a high open circuit voltage but low current extraction, fill factor, and efficiency, attributed to high series resistance and the absence of CdCl2 treatment.
