Funded Activity Summary

Spray-on Hydrogenated Films for Solar Cells. A successful project will contribute to a reduction in the cost of photovoltaic solar energy. This goal might be reached directly, via the development of spray-on hydrogenated films, or indirectly, through an improved knowledge of hydrogen passivation. Either way, the project will provide Australian Partner Investigator, Spark Solar, with a manufacturing edge over its global competitors. In so doing, it will support the burgeoning photovoltaic industry in Australia, providing jobs in manufacturing and research, and increasing the viability of photovoltaic energy as an alternative to fossil fuels. The project will also help keep Australia at the forefront of advances in photovoltaics and semiconductors.
