A copper indium gallium selenide solar cell (or CIGS cell, sometimes CI(G)S or CIS cell) is a thin-film solar cell used to convert sunlight into electric power. It is manufactured by depositing a thin layer of copper indium gallium selenide solid solution on glass or plastic backing, along with electrodes on the front and back to collect current.

A compound semiconductor is a semiconductor compound composed of chemical elements of at least two different species. These semiconductors form for example in periodic table groups 13–15 (old groups III–V), for example of elements from the Boron group (old group III, boron, aluminium, gallium, indium) and from group 15 (old group V, nitrogen, phosphorus, arsenic, antimony, bismuth).
Monocrystalline solar cell This is a list of notable photovoltaics (PV) companies. Grid-connected solar photovoltaics (PV) is the fastest growing energy technology in the world, growing from a cumulative installed capacity of 7.7 GW in 2007, to 320 GW in 2016. In 2016, 93% of the global PV cell manufacturing capacity utilized crystalline silicon (cSi) technology, representing a commanding lead ...

The following are the different types of solar cells. Amorphous Silicon solar cell (a-Si) Biohybrid solar cell; Cadmium telluride solar cell (CdTe) Concentrated PV cell (CVP and HCVP) Copper indium gallium selenide solar cells (CI(G)S) Crystalline silicon solar cell (c-Si) Aluminium Back surface field (Al-BSF) Passivated Emitter Rear Cell (PERC)
In 2013, record Lab cell efficiency was highest for crystalline silicon. However, multi-silicon is followed closely by cadmium telluride and copper indium gallium selenide solar cells. 25.6% — mono-Si cell; 20.4% — multi-Si cell; 21.7% — CIGS cell; 21.5% — CdTe cell; Both-sides-contacted silicon solar cells as of 2021: 26% and possibly ...
Crystalline silicon panels dominate worldwide markets and are mostly manufactured in China and Taiwan. By late 2011, a drop in European demand dropped prices for crystalline solar modules to about $1.09 [39] per watt down sharply from 2010. Prices continued to fall in 2012, reaching $0.62/watt by 4Q2012. [40]
