# Developing technology for tunnel/barrier layers on the silicon cell. The purpose of these layers are twofold: 1) At the interface electron currents from the silicon cell must be transformed into hole currents in the CZTS cell. 2) The interface must have a diffusion barrier to protect the silicon cell from in-diffusion of metals (particularly Cu) from the CZTS. This is a particularly challenging task. | |||
