Spectral Factor

Following the model of DeVos and Pauwels (1981), we calculated the spectral factor of efficiencies (η1) for n +-p or n +-i-p heterojunctions that can be formed by different thin absorber materials (p-type or intrinsic(i)) with n +-type CdS thin films produced by conversion of chemically deposited CdS thin films by doping with Cl or In as reported before. The materials with η1 comparable to that of CuInSe 2 (Eg, 1.01 eV: 57%) are AgBiS 2 (Eg, 0.9 eV: 56%), Cu 2 SnS 3 (Eg, 0.91 eV: 57%), PbSnS 3 (Eg, 1.05 eV: 57%), PbSbS 4 (Eg, 1.13 eV: 56%).

Cadmium sulfide (CdS) thin films were deposited by chemical bath deposition (CBD) onto polymeric composites with electric field-aligned multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs). MWCNT/polysulfone composites were prepared by dispersing low concentrations of MWCNTs within dissolved polysulfone (PSF). An alternating current electric field was “in situ” applied to align the MWCNTs within the dissolved polymer along the field direction until the solvent was evaporated. 80 μm thick solid MWCNT/PSF composites with an electrical conductivity 13 orders of magnitude higher than the conductivity of the neat PSF were obtained. The MWCNT/PSF composites were subsequently used as flexible substrates for the deposition of CdS thin films by CBD. Transparent and adherent CdS thin films with an average thickness of 475 nm were obtained. The values of the energy band gap, average grain size, rms roughness, crystalline structure, and preferential orientation of the CdS films deposited onto the polymeric substrate were very similar to the corresponding values of the CdS deposited onto glass (conventional substrate). These results show that the MWCNT/PSF composites with electric field-tailored MWCNTs represent a suitable option to be used as flexible conducting substrate for CdS thin films, which represents an important step towards the developing of flexible systems for photovoltaic applications.
