💎 Product Structure

The structure of cadmium telluride thin-film solar cells consists of five layers: glass substrate, transparent conductive oxide layer (TCO layer), cadmium sulfide (CdS) window layer, cadmium telluride (CdTe) absorption layer, back contact layer and back electrode.

⭐ Key Features

(1) Good weak light performance: CdTe is a direct bandgap material with excellent absorption. Its luminous effect in conditions such as early morning, evening, snow, and haze is significantly better than crystalline silicon cells.

(2) Low temperature coefficient: The temperature coefficient is about -0.21~0.25%/ºC, roughly half that of crystalline silicon. It generates more power in high-temperature environments.

(3) High conversion efficiency: Features a theoretical photoelectric conversion efficiency of approximately 28-29%.

(4) Low cost: Requires thin absorption layer and small amount of raw materials, making it highly competitive for large-scale production.

(5) Power generation stability: No light-induced degradation characteristics; performance remains stable even in humid climates.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions
What are the main applications for CdTe photovoltaic glass?
It is ideal for BIPV projects including curtain walls, roofs, greenhouses, sun-shading devices, balcony railings, and even renewable energy vehicles or consumer electronics.
How does CdTe glass perform in hot climates?
CdTe has a very low temperature coefficient (approx. -0.21~0.25%/ºC), which means it loses much less efficiency in high temperatures compared to traditional crystalline silicon cells.
Can the color and size be customized for specific buildings?
Yes, the glass supports customized colors (Red, Gold, Black, etc.) and sizes ranging from 1000mm up to 4000mm to match architectural design requirements.
Does this glass work well on cloudy or snowy days?
Yes, cadmium telluride is a direct bandgap material with excellent weak light performance, allowing it to generate power more effectively during early morning, evening, or overcast conditions.
What is the structure of these thin-film solar cells?
It consists of five layers: a glass substrate, a transparent conductive oxide (TCO) layer, a cadmium sulfide (CdS) window layer, a cadmium telluride (CdTe) absorption layer, and a back contact/electrode layer.
Is the power output stable over time?
Unlike crystalline silicon, cadmium telluride does not suffer from light-induced degradation. It also maintains stable output in humid climates as its spectral absorption does not overlap with water vapor peaks.
