 |
| | |
| Many new solar cells use transparent thin films that are also conductors of electrical charge. The dominant conductive thin films used in research now are transparent conductive oxides ("TCO") | |
| | |

|
|
| | |
| Whats the function of these "TCO's"? | |
| | |
|
|
| | |
| To allow light to pass through a substrate window to the active light - absorbing material beneath and to transport photogenrated charge carriers away from that light - absorbing material. | |
