Abstract

As a solar cell a heterostructure has been proposed that consists of an anode copper oxide Cu₂O and a transparent conductive layer Cd–Sn–O obtained via extraction-pyrolytic method. The heterostructure is formed on a copper substrate by means of anodic oxidation with further applying a transparent conductive oxide film. An increase in the efficiency of the Cu₂O/Cd–Sn–O element compared with Cu–Cu₂O structure has been shown to be possible.
