The benefits of wet processes

Clearly thin-film, and particularly CIS / CIGS, technologies offer numerous benefits over wafer-based cells. Wet processes provide the manufacturing capabilities to bring those benefits to market in cost-effective, high-volume products.

Typical manufacturing process flow using wet chemcial processes

Wet processes are less expensive than the vapor deposition techniques previously used for the buffer (window) and absorber layers in CIS / CIGS cell production. They are also extremely versatile. You can use them with a wide range of substrates (glass, metal or polymer) of almost any size, in batch production or low-cost roll-to-roll (polyimide, copper foil, stainless steel) manufacturing.

In addition, wet processes give you excellent control over deposition rates and layer thickness distribution. This allows you to fine-tune the parameters of your cell for the maximum performance.
