Technical FAQs 4

What is cadmium telluride (CdTe) solar glass?

Among the emerging technologies, cadmium telluride (CdTe) solar glass stands out with its high efficiency, aesthetic appeal, and eco-friendly properties, making it a prominent solution for BIPV applications. 1.

What is cadmium telluride solar cell?

Cadmium telluride (CdTe) solar cell is a kind of thin-film solar cell. It is both cost-effective and commercially viable. CdTe has a high value of optical absorption coefficient with good chemical stability and bandgap of 1.5 eV. The properties of CdTe make it the most attractive material for thin-film solar cell design.

Why is cadmium a problem in solar cells?

As a result, its performance usually ranges between 9% and 11%. The cadmium component of solar cells, on the other hand, raises environmental concerns. Cadmium is a heavy metal that can accumulate in humans, animals, and plants, making it potentially toxic.

Are cadmium-free CIGSe solar cells efficient?

Additionally, cadmium-free (Zn,Mg)O buffers were explored to address environmental concerns. Optimizing the intrinsic ZnO layer via atomic layer deposition further enhanced the device performance of Cd-free CIGSe solar cells, achieving 17.81 % efficiency.
