Products Description
CdTe thin-film solar panels are comprised of three main parts, having a layer for the semiconductor, one for the protection, and one for the conduction. These parts are:
The photovoltaic material is the part of the CdTe thin-film solar panel that converts solar radiation into DC energy. This is manufactured by creating a p–n heterojunction; this semiconductor requires the deposition of a layer of CdTe for the p-doped section and one of CdS or MZO for the n-doped section.
The conductive sheet allows the DC energy to flow between solar cells, increasing the voltage and allowing for the connection of CdTe panels into photovoltaic (PV) systems. These layers require the deposition of a metal layer or carbon paste, introducing copper (Cu) to create conduction in the panel.
Photovoltaic layers tend to be very fragile, which is why thin-film solar panels require a protective layer. Instead of using an aluminum frame and tempered glass, this layer, known as the Transparent Conductive Oxide (TCO) layer, is made by depositing SnO2:F or a similar material. The TCO layer is where the CdTe absorber is deposited, allowing the solar cell to be fully protected.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q:
How can I get the best price for your products?
In order to offer you our best price, please provide the details of your inquiry including: the specific type and dimensions of the glass, the approximate order quantity, any special processing requirements (such as drill holes, cut notches, cutouts, acid etched, or silkscreen), and your expected delivery timeline.
Q:
Where is your manufacturing facility located?
Our production facility is located in Shandong Province, China. We warmly welcome customers to arrange factory visits to inspect our production lines and quality systems.
Q:
What is the standard lead time for orders?
Generally, the manufacturing lead time for one full container container is 7-15 days. For urgent requests, we do our best to accelerate the production schedule to complete processing within 7 days.
Q:
How do you guarantee safe transport without breakage?
All glass panels are packed in robust, export-grade plywood crates, which are securely reinforced inside shipping containers using heavy-duty metal bands. Additionally, we secure comprehensive transit insurance for every shipment to cover unexpected risks and protect customer interests.
Q:
Do you accept small volume or low MOQ orders?
Yes, small quantities are acceptable. Please note that unit pricing for lower quantities may be slightly higher due to setup costs, machinery depreciation, and local handling fees shared over fewer units.
Q:
Can I request samples to evaluate the quality?
We provide free standard samples (except for specialized custom processing). Shipping fees are to be covered by the client; if you have a courier account (such as DHL, TNT, or FedEx), we can ship directly. Otherwise, the courier charge can be pre-paid to us, and we will refund it once a formal order is placed.
