Research abstract
THE AIM OF THE PROPOSED PROJECT IS TO DEVELOP MONOLITHICALLY INTEGRATED CUINSE2 PV MODULES ON LIGHT-WEIGHT, FLEXIBLE AND INSULATING FOIL SUBSTRATES. THE PHASE I OF THE WORK WILL CONCENTRATE ON THE DEVELOPMET OF THE INSULATING FOIL SUBSTRATES AND THE DEMONSTRATION OF MONOLITHIC INTEGRATION OF CUINSE2 CELLS ON THESE SUBSTRATES. IF SUCCESSFUL, THIS PROJECT WILL LEAD TO THE FABRICATION OF HIGH EFFICIENCY THIN FILM CUINSE2 PV MODULES ON FLEXIBLE SUBSTRATES. SUCH MODULES ARE NEEDED FOR MANY SPACE POWER APPLICATIONS.
