AMBP Tech in collaboration with ITN Energy Systems will demonstrate its Excimer Laser Processing capabilities as an ideal solution to reducing the thermal budgets necessary to process high efficiency CIGS solar cells. This will allow the use of lightweight and cheaper polymer substrates, thus helping achieve lower costs and better manufacturability. In Phase I of the proposed work, AMBP Tech will demonstrate that Excimer Laser Processing does provide a route to low temperature budget processing, show the scaleability of the process and demonstrate a mini roll to roll processing system.
