Problems solved by technology

[0003] The common structure of cadmium telluride thin-film solar cell is glass / FTO / CdS / CdTe / back contact layer / back electrode layer. This solar cell mainly has the following two disadvantages: 1) The cadmium telluride thin-film solar cell needs to be installed outdoors , as the use time increases, stains will appear on the surface, and the accumulation of stains will seriously affect the transmittance of sunlight, resulting in a continuous decrease in conversion efficiency
However, if the CdS layer is thinned, holes are easy to form on the surface, and the cadmium telluride layer contacts the TCO through these holes, forming a short circuit of the battery, which seriously affects the efficiency of the battery.

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of solar cells, in particular to a cadmium telluride thin-film battery containing a high-resistance layer and having a self-cleaning effect. Background technique [0002] The research and application of thin-film solar cells is a hot spot in the field of photovoltaics. Cadmium telluride (CdTe) thin film solar cell is a compound semiconductor thin film solar cell with CdTe as the absorbing layer. The energy gap width of CdTe is most suitable for photoelectric energy conversion. Solar cells made of this semiconductor can convert light into It can be directly converted into electrical energy, and has a high theoretical conversion efficiency (above 30%); at the same time, it has a lower production cost than silicon solar cells.
