This Small Business Innovation Research Phase II project is developing an innovative flexible photovoltaic technology based on n-copper indium diselenide (n-CIS). Phase I research devised a new approach to synthesize large-grained films, and a new device configuration with only 3 layers on a metal foil. The research also devised a simple 4-step fabrication method for the n-CIS photovoltaic cell. This process uses high throughput, high yield roll-to-roll electrodeposition on a continuous metal foil. The n-CIS photovoltaic technology will evolve into a stable and efficient flexible prototype device in Phase II, with pilot line production in Phase III. The research will lead to an affordable, non-polluting, renewable n-CIS PV technology to meet the growing demand in the global energy market. Its applications include: remote industrial and recreational power, off-grid and grid-tied residential and commercial power, generation systems, central power plants, spacecraft and satellites. Technology commercialization will make a tangible contribution to the nation's energy supply, the environment and the welfare of the society.

这个小型企业创新研究二期项目正在开发一种基于n-铜铟二硒化（n-CIS）的创新柔性光伏技术。第一阶段的研究设计了一种合成大颗粒薄膜的新方法，以及一种在金属箔上只有3层的新设备配置。该研究还为n-CIS光伏电池设计了一种简单的四步制作方法。该工艺在连续金属箔上采用高通量，高成品率的卷对卷电沉积。n-CIS光伏技术将在第二阶段发展成为稳定高效的柔性原型设备，在第三阶段进行中试生产线生产。这项研究将带来一种经济实惠、无污染、可再生的n-CIS光伏技术，以满足全球能源市场日益增长的需求。它的应用包括：远程工业和娱乐电力，离网和并网住宅和商业电力，发电系统，中央发电厂，航天器和卫星。技术商业化将对国家的能源供应、环境和社会福利做出切实的贡献。
