Effect of sodium diffusion on the properties of CIGS solar absorbers
The sodium selenide formed at the front surface of the CIGS can act as a Se source to promote the formation of larger CuSe 2 grains, resulting in large CIS grains near the surface.

At these high voltages, leakage currents drive sodium out of the glass at the front of the panels, through the polymer encapsulant, and into the sensitive electronics at the core.
Under outdoor conditions, PV modules often experience high system voltages, leading to the migration of sodium ions. This movement is primarily driven by an electric field between the glass
The alkali elements in soda-lime glass (sodium, calcium, potassium, and magnesium) can seep out of the glass and impact thin-film solar cells (especially under thermal load or applied voltage).
In this work, we use complementary microscopy and spectroscopy techniques to show that Na diffusion occurs in the fabrication process of PSMs. Na diffuses vertically inside P1 lines and
Sodium chloride (NaCl) is used as a fining agent in glass manufacturing because it helps to remove gas bubbles trapped in the glass melt, which is critical for achieving a high quality without
Na diffusion from SLG is known to cause several important effects in II–VI and chalcogenide solar modules, but it has not been studied in perovskite solar modules (PSMs).
Dive into the research topics of ''Sodium Diffuses from Glass Substrates through P1 Lines and Passivates Defects in Perovskite Solar Modules''. Together they form a unique fingerprint.
The influence of Na doping in vapour-transport-deposited SnS thin-film solar cells (TFSCs) was investigated based on the choice of substrate, such as soda-lime glass (SLG) and Eagle XG glass,
