An ultralight, flexible a-Si solar cell fabricated on a polyimide film substrate has been developed. It was found that prebaking the polyimide film substrate improved the output performance of the cell by reducing the amount of H20 and polymers released from the substrate. Also, using an i-layer fabricated at high temperature (250 Β° C) and a p-layer fabricated at low temperature (80 Β° C) improved the cell's output performance to a level of over 10%. A maximum output of 782.4 mW and a power-to-weight ratio of 340 mW/g were obtained for an integrated-type flexible a-Si solar cell submodule with a size of 113 mm Γ 120 mm.
