Cadmium Telluride

Cadmium telluride (CdTe) photovoltaics describes a PV technology that is based on the use of cadmium telluride thin films. Cadmium telluride cells and modules have certain advantages over crystalline silicon. Especially the favorable cost per effective module area makes it the technology of choice for large scale installations, where space requirements are less decisive.

Best cell efficiency has reached values of 16.5%.

With its portfolio of vertical and horizontal inline sputter and evaporation tools for photovoltaic applications, Leybold Optics is well positioned to provide industrial systems for CdTe cell production.
