Abstract

An amorphous silicon solar cell deposited on plastic film substrate has been studied. The solar cell has a new monolithic series-connected structure called SCAF, and will be fabricated by a newly developed fabrication process based on “Stepping Roll” film deposition system.

The process was compared with the conventional glass solar cell process. Preliminary results for small and large area SCAF solar cells were presented and discussed.
