III-V tandem, cuinga(S,Se)2, and Cu2ZnSn(S,Se)4 compound semiconductor thin film solar cells

Abstract

Solar cells with other alternative energies are being importantly recognized related with post-2020 climate change regime formation. In a point of view of materials, solar cells are classified to organic and inorganic solar cells which can provide a plant-scale electricity. In particular, recent studies about compound semiconductor solar cells, such as III-V tandem solar cells, chalcopyrite-series CIGSSe solar cells, and kesterite-series CZTSSe solar cells were rapidly accelerated. In this report, we introduce a research trend and technical issues for the compound semiconductor solar cells. © 2014 The Korean Society of Industrial and Engineering Chemistry. All rights reserved.
