Technical FAQs 4

What are the advantages of amorphous silicon based solar cells?

One of the advantages of amorphous silicon based solar cells is that they absorb sunlight very efficiently: the total thickness of the absorbing layers in amorphous silicon solar cells is less than 1 micron. Consequently these layers need to be supported on a much thicker substrate.

How are amorphous silicon solar cells made?

Amorphous silicon solar cells are normally prepared by glow discharge, sputtering or by evaporation, and because of the methods of preparation, this is a particularly promising solar cell for large scale fabrication.

Are thin film solar cells amorphous to microcrystalline?

Guha S (2004) Thin film silicon solar cells grown near the edge of amorphous to microcrystalline transition. Solar Energy 77:887–892 Zaidi B, Saouane I, Shekhar C (2018) Electrical Energy Gener-ated by Amorphous Silicon Solar Panels. Silicon 10:975–979

Are amorphous silicon solar cells fabricated by triode-plasma CVD?

Sonobe H, Sato A, Shimizu S, Matsui T, Kondo M, Matsuda A (2006) Highly stabilized hydrogenated amorphous silicon solar cells fabricated by triode-plasma CVD. Thin Solid Films 502:306–310 138.
