  • Patent number: 8293567
    Abstract: A copper/indium/gallium/selenium (CIGS) solar cell including a thermal expansion buffer layer, and a method for fabricating the same are provided. The thermal expansion buffer layer is configured between an alloy thin film layer and a CIGS thin film layer. The thermal expansion buffer layer is deposited by executing a thin film deposition process with a continuous sputtering machine bombarding a cuprous sulphide (Cu2S) or cuprous selenide (Cu2Se) target. Then, a CIGS thin film is further provided on the thermal expansion buffer layer. Finally, a thermal treatment is conducted for melting to integrate the copper ingredients of different thin film layers, thus improving the bondability between the thin film layers and preventing the cracking or the peeling off of the thin film layers caused by the thermal expansion difference.

  • Patent number: 8247334
    Abstract: A moisture-vapor-permeable and water-resistant fiber involves a layer of base fabric, a moisture-vapor-permeable layer, and a water absorption layer. The moisture vapor permeable layer is obtained by coating or laminating the inner side of the fabric with a moisture-vapor-permeable resin, which prohibits the penetration of the water droplets but allows the penetration of the moisture vapor molecules. The moisture absorption layer with intricate and colorful design is composed of binding resin blended with fiber powder and/or inorganic powder, and which is dot-coated or dot-printed onto the inner side of the moisture-vapor-permeable and water-resistant layer. The fiber powder or inorganic powder is highly hydrophilic and highly absorbent in its moisture absorption ability, which, when the clothes are fabricated, can prevent the penetration of raindrops but allows the transmission of the evaporated vapor of sweat through the fabric. Moreover, it is capable of absorbing plentiful amount of sweat.

  • Patent number: 7915072
    Abstract: A coating method for preparing a light absorbing layer of a solar cell is provided. In a non-vacuum environment, an ultrasonic vibrating mixer is employed to mix a CIGS mixture with a mixing fluid to obtain a CIGS coating material. The CIGS coating material is then uniformly coated on a molybdenum (Mo) layer which is driven by a conveyor device, so as to form a CIGS coating material layer having a uniform thickness on the Mo layer. An infrared ray (IR) heating lamp is then used to dry the CIGS coating material layer for removing residue of the mixing fluid remained in the CIGS coating material layer. In such a way, a CIGS light absorbing layer adapted for absorbing a solar energy and converting the absorbed solar energy into an electric energy is obtained. The CIGS light absorbing layer can be then used for fabricating a CIGS solar cell.
