Study the ZnO/CIGSS junction by XPS


EMSL Project ID
6895

Abstract

The solar cells degrade under high humidity. We will test a bare circuit and a stressed cell gone 1000 hours at 60C/90RH test. After 1000 hours of testing the bare circuit shows almost ?0? efficiency with respect to its 10% efficiency before the test starts. We will study the cell to look for the chemical change.
