Cadmium telluride photovoltaics
OverviewBackgroundHistoryTechnologyMaterialsRecyclingEnvironmental and health impactMarket viability
Cadmium telluride (CdTe) photovoltaics is a photovoltaic (PV) technology based on the use of cadmium telluride in a thin semiconductor layer designed to absorb and convert sunlight into electricity. Cadmium telluride PV is the only thin film technology with lower costs than conventional solar cells made of crystalline silicon in multi-kilowatt systems.
