Market Research Reports included a detailed market survey and analysis trends
on “Copper Indium Gallium Selenide
Solar Cells Market” This report also includes
more info about basic overview of the industry including definitions,
applications and global market industry structure.
CIGS
(Copper indium gallium selenide) is a semiconductor with direct bandgap which
is used for solar cells manufacturing. The absorber of CIGS is placed on a
glass or plastic backing, together with electrodes on back and front for
current collection. Since the material powerfully absorbs sunlight and has a
higher absorption coefficient, comparatively as compared to other semiconductor
material, a thin film is required. The devices which are prepared with CIGS fit
in the PV’s (photovoltaic’s) thin-film category.

CIGS
has several advantages of being able to be deposited on flexible substrate
materials which produce lightweight and highly flexible solar panels.
Efficiency improvements have made copper indium gallium selenide a leader among
alternative cell materials.
Copper
indium gallium selenide is one of the three conventional thin-film PV
technologies, the other two being amorphous silicon and cadmium telluride.
Unlike these materials, CIGS layers are quite thin to be flexible which thus
allows their deposition on flexible substrates. Conversely, since all these
technologies usually use deposition techniques which require high-temperature,
the cells deposited on glass give the best performance. This performance is
marginal in comparison with modern polysilicon based panels. Advancements in
low-temperature CIGS cells deposition have erased the performance difference,
even with flexible designs.
CIGS
has remarkably a high absorption coefficient greater than 105/cm for 1.5 eV and
high energy photons. CIGS solar cells having efficiencies of approximately 20
percent have been claimed by both the “Zentrum für Sonnenenergie und
Wasserstoff Forschung” (ZSW) and “National Renewable Energy Laboratory” (NREL),
which is till date record for any thin film solar cell. The thin film PV market
is expected to grow rapidly over the forecast period. Hence, a strong incentive
exists to improve and develop the deposition methods for such films which would
allow increased throughput and low cost.
