Problems solved by technology

[0004] CIGS solar cells prepared by methods such as magnetron sputtering, co-evaporation, and electroplating in the prior art have higher conversion efficiency, but a high-vacuum system is required to prepare thin films, the cost is higher, and the uniformity of large-area preparation is relatively poor. Selenium ( Sulfur) process temperature is higher (400-550 ° C), and the H used in the selenium (sulfur) process 2 Se(H 2 S) or Se(S) are highly toxic substances with high environmental protection costs, and the operation requirements for their preservation and use are relatively strict, which seriously affects the preparation of CIGS
