Abstract

The current photovoltaic technologies based on c-Si do not meet the requirements for economical fabrication steps, which have recently come to involve sheet-to-sheet (S2S) and roll-to-roll (R2R) and manufacturing and require flexible substrates and fast processing technologies. S2S and R2R manufacturing combines low-cost materials with high manufacturing speeds and enables the manufacture of various devices on a large scale. The implementation of low-temperature processes, particularly low-temperature plasma, into S2S and R2R manufacturing is essential for successful commercialization also in other industrial sectors, all combined in flexible and printed electronics. In this contribution we summarize the recent developments of plasma applications to the manufacture of flexible perovskite solar cells.
