Abstract
A solar cell with a transparent conductive layer having improved transmittance is described. The solar cell can include a solar cell substructure comprising an absorber layer disposed over a substrate; and a transparent conductive oxide (TCO) layer disposed over the substructure. The TCO layer can include a TCO film with a plurality of spaced-apart, high-transmittance structures therein. The TCO layer can have a higher transmittance of absorbable radiation than a comparable, homogeneous TCO film. The high-transmittance structures can be selected from the group consisting of perforations, high-transmittance particles, and combinations thereof. Methods of making solar cell with a transparent conductive layer having improved transmittance are also described.
