CdTe is a very robust and chemically stable material and for this reason its related solar cell
thin film photovoltaic technology is now the only thin film technology in the first 10 top …

Over the last 20 years, the technological improvements of CdTe solar cell have been
impressive, and today the performance of these cells is comparable with that of silicon cells …

CdTe-based solar cell efficiency has rapidly improved over the last few years. Some of the
reasons have been a change to the absorber composition including the incorporation of …

Ni et al.(Research Articles, 20 March 2020, p. 1352) report bulk trap densities of 1011 cm–3
and an increase in interfacial trap densities by one to four orders of magnitude from drive …

While space-charge-limited current measurements are often used to characterize charge-
transport in relatively intrinsic, low-mobility semiconductors, it is currently difficult to …

CdTe photovoltaic technology is one of the first being brought into production together with
amorphous silicon (already in the mid 90s Solar Cells Inc. in USA, Antec Solar and BP Solar …

Cadmium-based thin films and solar cell devices frequently possess crystallographic defects
like dislocations in the form of grain boundaries which deteriorate the quality of films and …

Using first-principles density functional calculations, we investigate the structure and
properties of three different grain boundaries (GBs) in the solar absorber material CdTe …

The CdCl2 treatment is well-known crucial step to considerably modify the physical
properties of absorber layer and power conversion efficiency of associated Cd-based solar …

The energy demand of the world is rapidly increasing and to cater this, there is a need to
explore new renewable energy resources. CdSe thin film solar cells may be promising …
