In this study, we proposed an anti-reflection (AR) texture constructed with nano-scale silicon dioxide particle dispersed in Accuglass® T-11 solution to form the structure on the glass by two-steps spin coating technique. We demonstrated the transmittance of the glass with AR texture will be enhanced about 2 % under optimal manufactured conditions. And we have proposed the simulated out-door endurance testing of AR texture which can provide the acceptable transmittance at different relative humidity levels. Based on these findings, we believe that the AR texture with SiO2 nanospheres on the cover glass can be useful in the applications of solar cell, thermal collector, and display device under appropriate environmental conditions.

One Step

We report an anti-reflective cover glass for Cu(In,Ga)Se2 (CIGS) thin film solar cells. Subwavelength structures (SWSs) were fabricated on top of a cover glass using one-step self-masked etching. The etching method resulted in dense whiskers with high aspect ratio. The produced structure exhibited excellent anti-reflective properties over a broad wavelength range, from the ultraviolet to the near infrared. Compared to a flat-surface glass, the average transmittance of the glass integrated with the SWSs improved from 92.4% to 95.2%. When the cover glass integrated with the SWSs was mounted onto the top of a CIGS device, the short-circuit current and the efficiency of the solar cell were enhanced by 4.38 and 6%, respectively, compared with a CIGS solar cell without cover glass.
