SOLAR CELLS

摘要

The present invention discloses a novel solar cell (100) comprising a multi-layer structure comprising a metal layer, (102) a semiconductor layer; (106) and an organic molecular monolayer (104) m between the metal and semiconductor layers. The organic molecular monolayer operates as a thin controllable insulator layer,- thereby enabling the multilayer structure to be operable as a MOIS (Metal-Organic-Insulator-Semiconductor) junction. According to the invention, the insulating layer is made of an organic monolayer having a high-degree of continuity of the molecules' arrangement within the layer, thus forming a large area junction.
