Abstract

The invention provides an In-doped CdS thin film, a preparation method thereof and a prepared CIGS battery. The preparation method comprises the following steps: (1) preparing a CIGS absorption layerthin film; (2) adding ammonia water and a thiourea solution into a cadmium nitrate solution, mixing, adding the CIGS absorption layer film prepared in the step (1), and heating in a water bath; (3) adding an In(NO3)3 solution into a constant-pressure funnel, diluting, dropwise adding the solution into the hydrothermal solution, and controlling the dropping speed to be 4 seconds per drop; and (4) after dropwise adding, obtaining the In-doped CdS film. According to the method, the In(NO3)3 solution is continuously dropwise added in the process of preparing a CdS buffer layer, the ratio of In toCd in the buffer layer is controlled by adjusting the concentration and the dropping speed of In ions in the solution, and the flat and compact In-doped CdS film is prepared. The photoelectric conversion efficiency of the CIGS battery using the In-doped CdS film as the buffer layer is improved from 13.43% to 16.39%.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of solar cells, in particular to an In-doped CdS thin film, a preparation method and a prepared CIGS cell. Background technique [0002] Copper indium gallium selenide thin film solar cells are based on polycrystalline CuIn 1-x Ga x Se 2 (CIGS) semiconductor thin film solar cells as the absorber. A typical CIGS cell structure is attached figure 1 As shown, it consists of soda-lime glass substrate, Mo back electrode, CIGS absorber layer, CdS buffer layer, intrinsic ZnO and Al-doped ZnO window layer, and Ni-Al top electrode. [0003] CdS film is currently the most widely used buffer layer for CIGS solar cells with the highest efficiency. It is an n-type semiconductor with a direct band gap of 2.4 eV. The CdS thin film forms a p-n junction with the p-type CIGS absorbing layer thin film, which constitutes the most basic unit of the CIGS thin film solar cell. Therefore, preparing a high-quality CdS buffer layer on t...
