Research abstract
ISET is proposing to fabricate CIGS solar cells on lightweight and flexible titanium foil using its patented low cost ink-based process. The ability to encapsulate titanium foil in an appropriate protective and insulating coating has made it compatible with our low cost process and has also enabled us to fabricate modules via monolithic integration. Specific power densities >1000 W/kg are now achievable on metallic foil substrates.
