PHOTOVOLTAIC DEVICE WITH MANGENESE AND TELLURIUM INTERLAYER

摘要

A photovoltaic device includes an absorber layer comprising a material comprising cadmium and tellurium. The photovoltaic device further includes a p+-type semiconductor layer and an interlayer interposed between the absorber layer and the p+-type semiconductor layer. The interlayer comprises manganese. The photovoltaic device may be manufactured as a substrate-based device or as a superstrate base device.
