Stion achieves 23.2 percent efficiency with thin film CIGS process

The high efficiency thin film solar company Stion has announced that it has produced a 23.2 percent efficiency thin-film cell based on its proprietary tandem junction technology
Stion achieves 23.2 percent efficiency with thin film CIGS process

The company has already scaled the technology at or above 20.0 percent efficiency on a prototype and expects to soon be able to scale to monolithic modules in the 20 to 22 percent efficiency range.

Stion is the first company to demonstrate fully integrated thin film devices at such high conversion efficiencies using scalable commercial processes. The company will continue to implement the key technical innovations behind the 23.2 percent cell on its pilot production line in San Jose, California, in preparation for the commercialization of thin film modules with greater than 20 percent efficiency.

The company’s unique approach to CIGS (Copper Indium Gallium Selenide) makes maximum use of proprietary materials and device expertise along with a robust, high-volume manufacturing process based on readily available standardized equipment.
