Abstract：The most effective way to promote the PV industry is to improve the efficiency of solar cells. Increasing optical utilization and spectral absorption can improve the efficiency of wide-spectrum thin film solar cells. In the former period， the main research contents of this project are focus on how to widen the optical transmittances， obtain high haze values and increase the optical utilization in the long wavelength region. Some typical research results are listed as follows： 1） Properties of high valence difference WZO have been investigated by means of plane wave pseudo-potential method based on the DFT and pulsed DC magnetron sputtering technique. The theoretical and practical results show that the Fermi level enters into the conduction band when doping W atoms into ZnO， indicating a typical n-type semiconductor characteristic and the optical band gap Eg increases significantly. 2） Influences of indium doping on the electrical， structural and optical properties of ZnO films prepared by ultrasonic spray pyrolysis have been investigated. Experimental results show that indium dopant can enhance the carrier mobility and （001） preferential orientation of ZnO thin films， which make the ZnO：In thin films more conductive and strong light-scattering. 3） The structural， electrical and optical properties of LPCVD-ZnO：B thin films have been ameliorated through using the ZnO buffer layer. The experimental results show that the "rich oxygen" buffer layer effectively increased the near infrared optical transmittance. 4） A double-period structure to improve light absorption and trapping has been proposed by combining MS ZnO and LPCVD-grown ZnO：B films. This kind of mutiscale-tpye ZnO films as front electrodes are preliminarily used in tandem solar cells. 5） A high-performance ZnO electrode with high conductivity， transmittance and haze radio has been prepared by magnetron sputtering and post wet-etching. Effective textured surface with large crater and small crater compound is detected which enhance the long and short wavelength light trapping efficiency synchronously. Using this ZnO as front contact， an a-Si：H/a-SiGe：H/μc-Si：H triple tandem solar cell was obtained with an efficiency of 14.06%. 6） Cubic PbS QDs have been synthesized by chemical bath deposition. The effects of the reaction conditions on the properties of PbS QDs are investigated in detail. Specific technical approaches have been achieved to enhance the performances of upconverter with PbS QDs.
