Thin film and surface technologies are an important basis for applications in modern life. The Fraunhofer Institute for Electron Beam and Plasma Technology FEP in Dresden has expertise in the development and application of electron beam and plasma technologies for vacuum coatings and surface treatments, and we work closely with academic and industrial partners to scale-up laboratory solutions to meet commercial demands for applications in the fields of energy and environment, life sciences, and microelectronics. Our aim is to overcome bottlenecks in cost, reliability, and performance towards reliable and scalable solutions for surface engineering, film deposition, and system integration.
In this talk, results of vacuum technology process development for photovoltaics will be presented. A particular focus will be on processes for large area transparent high-barrier layers and transparent conductive electrodes using vacuum roll-to-roll coating processes. Examples from current industry focused projects for the development of perovskite photovoltaics will complete this presentation.
