Record breaking solar cells: Zn x Cd( 1-x )Te graded bandgap nanoarrays
CdTe is the leading material for thin-film solar cells due to ease of processing and reduced cost. However, low conversion efficiencies due to defects in the material are still a problem in these devices. We propose implementing micro and nano-enabled pseudomorphic growth of ZnCdTe to dramatically increase the efficiency of CdTe solar cells. Simulations predict that defect-free films are possible in graded ZnCdTe nanoislands below 90 nm as well as 24 % efficient solar cells with the use of ZnCdTe grading. Selective growth of CdTe showed single grains when the island sizes decreased below 300 nm. The simulation and experimental results demonstrate for the first time the ability to use nanopatterned substrates to enhance uniformity and efficiency in CdTe thin film solar cells. More than 20 reports, presentations, and papers were produced as part of this work and the results from this project enabled UTEP and Sandia to secure to grants.
