| Abstract: | The reproducibility of CdTe device efficiency and stability has been demonstrated during long-duration operation of the system with a single charge loading for the CdS, CdTe, and CdCl2 process. A fixture for automated cooling of the substrate in vacuum has been designed, fabricated, installed, and tested. Significant advances to the modeling of large-area vapor sources and modeling of gas transport in the system have been made. Efforts to improve device efficiency and advance device characterization are under way. A process for removing the coated films to reduce the amount of solid waste has been developed. |
