Additional information
The work described in this paper is dealing with viable routes to lower the cost of thin film PV, namely CdTe devices. The results described in the paper demonstrated that a controllable deposition technique, such as MOCVD allow using up to 8 times less absorber material and widening the band gap of the window layer, while maintaining the device efficiencies above 10%. The research took place during the EPSRC funded consortium of PV Supergen phase ( EP/F029624/1) and the findings contributed to secure continuation of funding.
