More Information
Summary:A photovoltaic device having an absorber multilayer and methods of manufacturing the same are described. The absorber multilayer, which is formed adjacent to a window layer, may include a doped first cadmium telluride layer which contains a first dopant and an intrinsic second cadmium telluride layer. The absorber multilayer may further include at least a third cadmium telluride layer formed adjacent to a back contact. The at least third cadmium telluride layer may include doped or intrinsic cadmium telluride.
