Abstract

The invention provides an antimony compound doping method of CIGS, which belongs to the technical field of thin-film solar cells. The antimony compound doping method of the CIGS comprises the steps of: firstly, mixing an antimony compound with a CIGS compound according to required doping amount to obtain a mixture; secondary, smashing the mixture to obtain powder materials; and finally subjecting the powder materials to hot pressed sintering to obtain the CIGS compound doped with the antimony compound. Through the method, the CIGS compound can be doped with the antimony compound evenly, and the conversion efficiency of solar cells can be improved when the thin-film solar cells are manufactured by using raw materials prepared by adopting the method.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of solar thin film batteries, in particular to a CIGS antimony compound doping method. Background technique [0002] Copper indium gallium selenide (CIGS) has been used as a thin-film solar cell for nearly two decades. Compared with other thin-film solar cell materials, it has the characteristics of wide absorption spectrum and high energy band adjustability. CIGS is a new generation with Thin-film solar cell materials with broad application potential. How to improve the conversion efficiency of CIGS thin-film solar cells has always been a key issue in this technology, because it directly affects the application cost and commercial value of the cells. At present, the method of doping antimony (Sb) elements into CIGS materials is mainly based on IBM's doping method, that is, the chemical solution containing Sb is sprayed on the CIGS film by rotating the turntable, and then the Sb solution is sprayed. The CI...
