Abstract
Cadmium telluride (CdTe) photovoltaics is a promising and scalable technology, commanding over 90% of the thin film photovoltaics market. An appropriate window layer is crucial for high-efficiency CdTe solar cells. This study aimed to investigate a representative MgZnO (MZO) window layer and enhance device performance. We studied the properties of MZO films with different substrate temperatures and their application in CdSeTe/CdTe solar cells. Despite the high transmittance and wide band gap of MZO film, the device performance of MZO sputtered at room temperature is limited by excessive conduction band offset. Tailoring the substrate temperature for MZO sputtering helps optimize the band alignment of the MZO/CdSeTe interface, contributing to an improvement in the efficiency of CdTe solar cells.
