XsunX, Inc., an established solar energy company, has developed a breakthrough thin-film photovoltaic (TFPV) cross-industry technology to mass produce high efficiency, low cost CIGSolar cells. Our unique approach to high-speed small-area deposition bridges the gap between inexpensive thin-film and high performance silicon technologies.

Markets & Application Opportunities for Your Organization:

  • Solar Modules: Made with high performance, low cost CIGSolar cells, the lower costalternative to crystalline silicon cells
  • Stainless Steel Substrates: Unbreakable, instantly improving yields and reducing WIP losses

Copper Indium Gallium Diselenide (abbreviated CIGS) is a thin film solar cell technology based on the copper indium diselenide (CIS) family of chalcopyrite semiconductors.

Significant advantages of CIGS over other solar cell technologies:

  • CIGS has achieved demonstrated laboratory conversion efficiencies of up to 20%, similar to that of conventional crystalline silicon and significantly greater than two other primary thin film technologies such as CdTe and a-Si
  • CIGSolar devices resist performance degradation over time and are highly stable in the field
  • CIGSolar is a direct band gap absorber that offers superior conversion efficiency potential allowing your solar products to continue to deliver improved performance into the future
  • Materials necessary for manufacture are readily available, and are less costly per watt of solar cell
  • Cell manufacture based on small-area deposition technology ensures rapid mass production, higher performance efficiencies, and lowered manufacturing costs.

Let XsunX help you grow your solar business with

high efficiency, low cost CIGSolar cells
