Growth of Mo Thin Films on Flexible Polymer and Metal Foil Substrates for Solar Cell Application

Abstract:

The Mo thin films have been used as the back electrodes of Cu (In,Ga)Se₂ and Cu₂ZnSn (S,Se)₄ thin film solar cells. In this study, the Mo thin films were sputtered on flexible polyimide, polyethylene terephthalate, stainless steel foil, Ti foil, and Al foil substrates. The experimental results indicate that the Mo thin films with promising properties can grow on different flexible substrates. The favourable substrate material is stainless steel foil. By post-annealing, the average sheet resistance of Mo thin film on stainless steel foil substrate reduces to 2.05 Ω/sq.
