In this paper, the features of the characteristics of model thin-film solar cells based on the non-toxic multicomponent compound CuZn2AlS4 (CZAS) are considered. The main parameters (open-circuit voltage, short-circuit current, fill factor, efficiency) and characteristics (quantum efficiency, current-voltage characteristic) of thin-film solar cells based on CZAS have been determined. The minimum optimal thickness of the CZAS absorber is found (1-1.25 microns). Deterioration of the performance of solar cells with an increase in operating temperature (280-400 K) is shown. It is revealed that in the wavelength range of 390-500 nm CZAS has a high external quantum efficiency, which allows its use in designs of multi-junction solar cells designed to absorb solar radiation in the specified range. It is shown that the combination of CZAS films with a buffer layer of non-toxic ZnS increases the performance of solar cells.

Ar Coating

AbstractThe enhancement of optical transmittance at the air/glass interface of amorphous silicon thin film solar cells was shown by application of a nanoporous polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) antireflection (AR) coating. The PMMA coating was prepared by spin coating of PMMA solution in chloroform in the presence of a small amount of nonane. Because of the difference of the vapor pressure of chloroform and nonane, phase separated structure formed after complete evaporation of both of them during spin coating process. The Corning 1737 glass with the AR coating has high transmittance near 95% from 450-1100nm wavelengths. The amorphous silicon solar cells with the nanoporous PMMA AR coating realize an improvement in quantum efficiency (QE) up to 4% in 450-650nm spectral regions.
