6 FAQs about [Solar cell transmittance]

What is the transmittance of CdTe solar cells?

It is worth noting that the transmittance around 1000 nm in the near-infrared region (NIR) is over 70%, which is the highest value among the as-reported semitransparent CdTe solar cells.

What is the NIR transmission of a semitransparent CdTe solar cell?

More importantly, the NIR transmission of the semitransparent CdTe solar cell reached over 70%. To the best of our knowledge, it is the most transparent reported ultrathin CdTe cell with relatively high efficiency so far.

How are semitransparent CdTe solar cells prepared?

In this work, semitransparent CdTe solar cells were prepared by utilizing 900-nm-thick ultrathin CdTe absorber and CuCl/ITO transparent back contacts. The ultrathin CdTe in the present work was prepared by magnetron sputtering and the effects of substrate temperature and deposition ambient were extensively investigated.

Does CdTe film increase the transmittance of a solar cell?

However, when it was fabricated into a complete device, the AVT of the cell increased to 7.04 %. This means that the transmittance of the CdTe film when converted into a device, not only did not decrease but increased, which is highly beneficial for the BIPV application of the solar cell.

Are semitransparent solar cells efficient?

Efficient, neutral-colored semitransparent solar cells are of com. interest for incorporation into the windows and surfaces of buildings and automobiles. Here, the authors report on semitransparent perovskite solar cells that are both efficient and neutral-colored, even in full working devices.
