Abstract:
A flexible solar cell is an attractive concept which provides both material saving and structure flexibility for advanced applications. Thin film exfoliation is achieved by using the controlled spalling technology (CST). The spalling process is implemented by applying a metal stressor to predetermine the fracture thickness, and a handling polyimide tape to assure spalling controllability. This technique was applied for different types of solar cells, mainly single junction InGaAs structure and silicon based HIT structure. First, conventional solar cells were processed and then characterized. The efficiencies of these cells were measured to be 22% and 14%, respectively. To peel off a thin film off the substrate, a Ti/Ni stack was sputtered so it exerts a tensile stress on the underneath substrate. Under specific conditions, a Ni thickness of about 5µm is capable of spalling ~20µm of the desired substrate. The spalled film could be a complete PV structure as the case for the InGaAs cell or a partial structure as the case for the HIT cell. For HIT cells, a PECVD emitter deposition is performed after spalling. A comparison between the bulk structures and the flexible ones will be discussed. In addition, Light current-voltage characteristics and external quantum efficiencies will be presented.
