The Application of Sputtered Gallium Oxide as Buffer for Cu(In,Ga)Se2 Solar Cells

Wolfram Witte et al.

Summary: Crystalline gallium oxide is a promising wide-bandgap semiconductor material suitable for high-frequency and high-power devices, as well as thin-film solar cells. X-ray amorphous gallium oxide deposited by RF magnetron sputtering serves as an n-type buffer layer in solar cells, improving efficiency.

ALD-ZnMgO and absorber surface modifications to substitute CdS buffer layers in co-evaporated CIGSe solar cells

Ramis Hertwig et al.

Summary: The study successfully deposited Zn1-xMgxO thin films as buffer layers on co-evaporated CIGS absorbers using atomic layer deposition (ALD), improving device performance and reproducibility through wet chemical surface treatments and in-situ surface reducing treatments prior to the ALD process. The highest efficiency of 18% was achieved through these optimizations.
