Investigation of the combination of ITO/CdS/CdTe/Cu/Au solar cells in microassembly for electrical supply of field cables

Studies aimed at optimizing the design of micromodules based on ITO/CdS/CdTe/Cu/Au photoelectric converters, which are used in autonomous power plants for field camps, have been carried out. To use photoelectric converters as power sources, they are combined into micromodules and modules. The nature of commutation of single solar cells in the microassembly significantly affects the output characteristics of the micromodule and, consequently, the efficiency of the photoelectric converter as a whole. It is found that the series connection of the ITO/CdS/CdTe/Cu/Au PEC in the micromodule ensures its stability even if the output parameters of one or more single solar cells fail or deteriorate. If the composition of the micromodule includes a solar cell with significantly worse output characteristics, or there are several such elements, then when they are connected in series, the efficiency of the micromodule is several times higher than for a parallel cell. With the series connection of the ITO/CdS/CdTe/Cu/Au PEC in the micromodule composition, experimental samples of the micromodule with an efficiency of 5.3 % are obtained, which is almost 2 times higher than for parallel connection of the same PEC

1. Introduction

The fulfillment of tasks in a state of emergency, in zones of armed conflicts, in the elimination of catastrophes and natural disasters, usually takes place outside the points of permanent deployment. Solving such problems requires the deployment of mobile field camps, with a developed infrastructure and autonomous power supply.

At the moment, diesel generators and diesel power plants based on them are used as autonomous power plants. However, they have significant drawbacks, among which can be identified: a large consumption of organic fuel, low resource, high operating costs and non-environmental, but at the moment there is no full replacement. Among the most promising alternatives to existing autonomous power supply systems are autonomous power plants equipped with renewable energy sources. As shown in [1], as renewable energy sources, it is advisable to use both photoelectric converters (PEC) and wind turbines, as well as their combinations.

Therefore, it is relevant to study PEC, intended for use in autonomous power plants for field camps.

2. Literature review and problem statement

As a renewable source of energy for use in self-contained power plants, film photoelectric converters based on CdS/ CdTe are considered. PECs based on CdS/CdTe represent an alternative to conventional silicon photoelectric converters [2]. Modern high-performance CdS/CdTe film-based PECs are fabricated in a rear configuration on a glass substrate. Solar radiation enters the base layer through a transparent glass substrate [3, 4].

The width of the forbidden zone of cadmium telluride, which is 1.46 eV [5], is best adapted to the transformation of solar energy in terrestrial conditions [6]. The light absorption coefficient of cadmium telluride for the visible range exceeds 105 cm-1 [7]. Thus, a layer of CdTe only a few micrometers thick provides almost complete absorption of the incident light flux [8]. This allows the creation of instrument structures based on CdTe, which are characterized by low material capacity [9]. The technology of producing CdS/ CdTe films is rapidly reproducible and allows the formation of uniform thin films with an area of more than 1 m2. In ad-

dition, CdS/CdTe-based PECs have the highest efficiency among unconverted PECs - 29 % [10].

To use PECs as power sources, they are combined into micromodules and modules. PECs in a micromodule is connected both in series and in parallel. The efficiency of the whole micromodule depends on the PEC efficiency, which is part of its composition. With a series connection of a photocell, the current flowing through the micromodule can't accustom the current from the "bad" element. The resulting voltage of the micromodule can be found by adding up the voltages on each element that is included in its composition. With a PECs parallel connection, the resulting current of the micromodule is equal to the sum of the currents from each element, and the voltage is reduced by the "bad" element. Therefore, it is necessary to determine the optimal method for connecting the CdS/CdTe-based PECs in the micromodule composition, as well as the contribution of the output parameters of the "bad" element to a decrease in the efficiency of the instrumental structure as a whole.

3. The aim and objectives of research

The aim of research is investigation of the optimal scheme for connecting ITO/CdS/CdTe/Cu/Au photovoltaic converters in a microassembly for use in stand-alone power plants for field camps.

To achieve this aim, it is necessary to solve the following tasks:

- to determine the scheme of electrical commutation of photoelectric converters ITO/CdS/CdTe/Cu/Au;

- to test instrument structures based on CdS/CdTe in the composition of micromodules.

4. Materials and methods for studying the output parameters of photoelectric converters _ITO/CdS/CdTe/Cu/Au_

4. 1. Materials and equipment used to produce micromodules made from photoelectric converters ITO/CdS/ CdTe/Cu/Au

Micromodules with parallel and series connection of solar cells based on CdS/CdTe are investigated. For their manufacture, a system of masks is developed and manufactured (Fig. 1). The production of solar cells based on CdS/CdTe is carried out by the method of thermal vacuum evaporation in a single technological cycle according to the procedure described in [11].

The application of ITO films (indium and tin oxides) is carried out by the method of non-reactive magnetron sputtering using direct current using a mask without separation into individual electrodes. The preparation of isolated frontal contact pads is carried out by scrubbing. This approach is due to the magnetron layer formation technology, in which it is impossible to form sharp layer boundaries. For the deposition of a layer of sulphide and cadmium telluride, the same mask is used, since the deposition of these layers was carried out in a single technological cycle without disturbing the vacuum.

The formation of a layer of cadmium chloride is carried out using smaller masks. This is due to the fact that layers of cadmium telluride are used as the dielectric layers, to which the layer of cadmium chloride is not applied. Consequently,

they are not subjected to a "chloride" treatment, in which the series resistance decreases. At the final stage, the rear Cu/Au contacts are formed.

Fig. 1. Photographs of the mask system for manufacturing a micromodule

Each micromodule consists of five solar cells, which are connected in parallel or in series. The size of the micromodule, as well as the number of solar cells in it, is determined solely by the design of the working volume of the apparatus for obtaining laboratory samples. There are 4 described micromodules on the glass substrate (Fig. 2).

Fig. 2. Appearance of the module

Instrument structures with parallel (M2, M4) and sequential (M3, M5) solar cell connections in a micromodule are fabricated.

4. 2. Method of measurement and analytical processing of light current-voltage characteristics

The output parameters of the solar cells (SC) are the short-circuit current density (Jsc), the open circuit voltage

(Voc), the filling factor (FF) of the light current-voltage characteristic (CVC) and, ultimately, the efficiency. According to the equivalent SC scheme (Fig. 3), the quantitative characteristics of photoelectric processes are the light diode characteristics: the photocurrent density (Jp), the density of the diode saturation current (J0), the diode ideality coefficient (A), the series resistivity (Rs) and the shunt resistor (Rsh), which are calculated per unit area of the solar cell. The relationship between the efficiency of solar cells with light diode characteristics in an implicit form is described by the theoretical light SC CVC [12]:

Jr-Jp+Jo{exp[e(Vl-JlRs)/(AkT)]-1}+(Vl-JlRs)/Rsh, (1)

where Ji - the current density flowing through the load, e -the electron charge; k - the Boltzmann constant, T - the temperature of the solar cell; Vl - voltage drop on the load.

where Im and Um - the current value and the voltage corresponding to the point of maximum power Pm.

Measurements of the light CVCs are carried out by the compensation method in a steady-state irradiation mode close to the standard AM1.5 using a universal LED illuminator USO-2 [15], which is installed in a laboratory installation. A general view of this device is shown in Fig. 4.

Along with the USO-2, this installation includes: a stable constant current source TEC 88, a stabilized direct current source HUAYI Electronics HY3020MR, two mul-

timeters MASTECH MS8040. The installation scheme is complemented by a resistive voltage divider to provide a step change in voltage (in the measuring circuit - 0.01 V, at the input of the divider - 0.1 V), as well as the store of reference resistances P-33. The use of this laboratory facility makes it possible to investigate solar cells with a large degree of approximation to terrestrial solar spectra and standard conditions for attestation of laboratory PEC samples. Analytical processing of light CVCs of investigated PECs is carried out with the help of a computer using the method described in [16].

5. Results of the investigation of light CVCs of micromodules

The analysis of the output parameters of the ITM/CdS/ CdTe/Cu/Au micromodules measured for each module with parallel and series connection of the elements shows the following results. When the elements are connected in series, the efficiency of the micromodules is higher and reaches a maximum efficiency of 5.3 % for the micromodule M5_3. As can be seen from Tables 1, 2, this value is due to higher open circuit (Уос=3572 mV) compared to the micromodule M5_1 (Уос=2449 mV). With the parallel connection of solar cells, the maximum value of the efficiency of the micromodule is 2.4 %, which is almost 2 times lower than when the same solar cells are connected in series.

It is assumed that the low value of Voc for the micromodule M5_1 is due to shunting the solar cells in the micromodule. According to [3], the value of Voc is limited by the value of the potential barrier and decreases with increasing recombination rate. To confirm the assumption, let's analyze the output parameters and the light diode characteristics of the individual solar elements of the modules M5_1 and M5_3. The design of the micromodule, in which the solar cells are connected in series, makes it possible to measure their output parameters.

In the first micromodule (M5_1) there are two practically shunted solar cells. The second micro-module (M5_3) had one PEC with a significantly lower efficiency.

Fig. 6. Light CVC of the micromodule M5_3 in the series connection of five PECs

Analysis of Table 4 shows that the solar elements of the first micromodule have light diode characteristics and output parameters in the following intervals: Rs=(3-9) Ohm cm2, Rsh=(9-620) Ohm cm2, J0=((4.10-11-9x10-4) A/cm2, Voc= = (97-755) mV, Jsc=(10.6-18.2) mA/cm2, FF=(0.26--0.61), efficiency=(0.3-8.4) %, the second micromodule - Rs=(5.5-10) Ohm cm2, Rm=(24-520) Ohm cm2J0 = = (7x10-9-3,0x10-7) A/cm2, Voc=(550-760) mV, Jsc=(15--17.8) mA/cm2, FF=(0.28-0.6), efficiency=(2.6-8.1) %.

For the micromodule M5_1, despite the shunting of the two elements, a successive connection yielded an efficiency of 3.9 %. For the micromodule M5_3, with a successive combination of elements, the efficiency reached 5.3 %. The shunting of two solar cells led to a significant decrease in Jp

and an increase in Rs, compared with the diode characteristics of the micromodule M5_1, with the series connection of four PECs. Comparison of the output parameters of micromodules M5_1 and M5_3 has shown that a significant difference in the efficiency of micromodules is ensured, first of all, by a lower value of Voc for the same value of Jsc and a larger value of FF.

To assess the quality of commutation, the experimental values of the output characteristics of micromodules are compared with the output parameters in the theoretical sequential addition of experimental light-emitting characteristics of solar cells. In addition, the theoretical output parameters are compared for a series and parallel connection of experimental PECs (Table 5).

Table 5

Theoretical parameters of micromodules for series and parallel PEC connections

M5_1 (2-5) series 2390 4.2 0.56 5.6

M5_1 (1-5) series 2491 3.3 0.53 4.4

M5_3 (1-5) series 3568 3.4 0.49 5.9

parallel 716 16.7 0.49 5.9

As can be seen from Table 5, in the case of PEC series connection, shunting of one instrumental structure does not exert a decisive influence on the magnitude of the efficiency. If there are two shunted samples in the micromodule, their series connection leads to the fact that the efficiency drops by 26 %, but in the case of a parallel connection, the efficiency is reduced by 80 %. This circumstance is essential for determining the PEC connection type during their industrial production.

of the second micromodule is less than the theoretical value by 10-12 relative percent. The connection of two PECs with a low efficiency value reduces the efficiency of the first micromodule by 21 relative percent. The lower value of the experimental efficiency of micromodules is due to the significantly lower values of Jsc. Jsc value for M5_1 is between the maximum and minimum values for the individual PECs. Jsc value for M5_3 turns out to be less than the value of the short-circuit current density for all individual PECs.

If for M5_1 it could be considered that the current is limited to the current of the worst elements, then for M5_3 such explanation does not fit. It can be assumed that the current limitation is due to the presence of a barrier on the rear contact. Simulation of the parallel connection of solar cells shows that for M5_3 the efficiency of the module corresponds to the efficiency with the series connection of individual elements.

At the same time, for M5_1, which includes several PEC with significantly worse output characteristics, the efficiency at parallel connection is 2.5-3.5 times worse than with the series connection of these PECs. This is due to the fact that the PEC with low output parameters limit the Voc of micromodule, which becomes significantly smaller than the average value Voc of individual PECs. In this case, there is a significant decrease in FF.

Thus, the results of the study indicate the need for a series connection of the PECs in the composition of micromodules for the stable operation of instrument structures based on them.

This research is a continuation of research aimed at developing effective thin-film solar cells based on CdS/CdTe.

As part of the research, the adequacy of applying the expression for the CVC for the analysis of PEC assemblies is not confirmed. Further research may be aimed at eliminating this shortcoming, as well as developing methods for restoring the PEC efficiency that enter the module after deteriorating their output parameters.

6. Discussion of the research results of photoelectric converters ITO/CdS/CdTe/Cu/Au in microassembly

Investigations of the ITO/CdS/CdTe/Cu/Au photoelectric converter compound in the microassembly show the following results. PECs series connection in the micromodule M5_1, which contains two practically shunted solar cells, makes it possible to obtain an efficiency of 3.9 %. The efficiency of the micromodule M5_3 with a PECs series connection reaches 5.3 %.

The experimental and theoretical values of Voc of micromodules practically coincide. The experimental efficiency

7. Conclusions

1. It is found that the photoelectric converters ITO/ CdS/CdTe/ Cu/Au in the composition of micromodules must be connected in series. This type of connection will contribute to the stable operation of the instrument structure when shunting individual PECs.

2. With the series connection of the ITO/CdS/CdTe/ Cu/Au PEC in the micromodule composition, experimental samples of micromodules with an efficiency of 5.3 % are obtained, which is almost 2 times higher than in parallel connection of the same solar cells.

1. Introduction

Power engineering has intensively developed in today's world, due to which leading countries export electricity to neighboring developing countries. In this case, power engineers face the task on electricity generation and transmission over long distances. This, in turn, necessitates design of new materials for electro-technical purposes, as well as

priority development of metallurgical technologies and materials science [1, 2].

At present, given their high mechanical, physical-chemical and corrosive properties, as well as high manufacturabil-ity, aluminum alloys are widely used in engineering. Another reason, contributing to a wide application of aluminum alloys, is the availability of large amounts of reserves of aluminum ores in the world.
