By protecting new processes, products and technical solutions, the patent is one of the most valuable tool to protect innovations. As a result, it is essential in industries and research and development.

Chatou

Study of interfacial materials for the fabrication of Cu(In,Ga)Se₂ thin film photovoltaic devices.

Chatou

The work focused on the development of innovative and efficient materials for the fabrication of the buffer layer of Cu(In,Ga)Se₂ (CIGS) thin film solar cell. For the first time, In2(S,O)3 and Zn(O,S) thin films were synthesized by Plasma Enhanced Atomic Layer Deposition (PEALD) in order to substitute the conventional cadmium sulfide buffer layer.I developed various technical skills during this PhD experience:- Thin film synthesis using vacuum processes (Plasma and Thermal Atomic Layer Deposition)- In-situ gas phase characterization (Quadrupole Mass Spectrometry)- Thin film characterization ((GI)XRD, XRR, XPS, SEM, EDX, etc.)- Photovoltaic device fabrication and characterization
