Abstract. In order to reach the world target of 4% share of electricity production by 2030 worldwide, the major issues in the solar cell domain are to lower the costs of modules from around 3 €/Wp to below 0.5 €/Wp, to have products with a maximum capacity for building integration like roofing elements or walls panels, and to find processes leading to the fabrication of environmentally friendly PV products.
For these purposes our team proposes to make complex targets (CuInS₂) with different amount of Ga and to make films deposition on new substrates like composite glasses, kapton and metal sheets (Ti foil and stainless steel foil).
