β¦ Synopsis
Twyford CE High School has an ongoing research project developing CdS-CdTe thin film solar cells.
Using a wet dip process, cells of IOX efficiency (over 1 cm 2) are fabricated, with 75% of the cells made reaching this efficiency.
The school has used its contacts formed during this work with academic and commercial institutions in the Community to develop an international curriculum project, which is described here. This project has developed a teaching module suitable for 16-18 year olds studying Physics at advanced level in the area of Renewable Energy, principally photovoltaics. This has provided a curriculum focus for exchange visits between the participating schools in London and Frankfurt.
