Abstract

Backwall Cu2S/CdS thin film solar cells of 10.4% conversion efficiency have been fabricated on SnOx:Sb coated glass substrates by an evaporation technique involving a solid state reaction to form the junction. The cells exhibit an open circuit voltage of 470-490 mV and a short circuit current density of ≈37 mA/cm2 under 100 mW/cm2 tungsten illumination. The carrier collection is enhanced as a result of a back surface n+/n junction formed at the SnOx/CdS interface.
