Radiation-resistant materials and solar cells based on them

The main proposals for discussion: conducting experimental research, joint development of the development to an industrial level, execution of custom work.

Sphere of implementation and application of the project (startup): energy saving, fundamental research, optoelectronics, energy, radiation technologies.

Scope of the project (startup): Development of new technologies for the production of materials, their processing and connection, the creation of an industry of nanomaterials and nanotechnologies.

Description of the project (startup): The development involves the synthesis and growth of semiconductor crystals based on chalcogenides of elements of the second and third groups of the type (3АІІВVI)1-x(CIII2BVI3)х, (including Hg3In2Te6, Cd3In2Te6, etc.) and the deposition of thin films on their basis, radiation resistance to ionizing radiation. Based on the materials obtained, the creation of solar cells by applying wide-gap oxide and nitride thin films on these as a window.

Markets targeted by the project (startup): Enterprises, institutions, organizations on the territory of Ukraine and abroad.

Description of the problem solved by the project (startup): Solves the following problems: low radiation resistance of materials (Si, Ge); low radiation hardness of traditional solar cells

Technical result: Method of synthesis and growth of semiconductor crystals based on chalcogenides of elements of the second and third groups of the type (3АІІВVI)1-x(CIII2BVI3)x, (including Hg3In2Te6, Cd3In2Te6, etc.) and deposition of thin films based on them.

Competitive advantages and novelty of the project (startup): cheap and widespread materials; high radiation stability of chalcogenides of elements of the second and third groups of the type (3АІІВVI)1-x(CIII2BVI3)х, (including Hg3In2Te6, Cd3In2Te6, etc.); high radiation resistance of solar cells based on data from chalcogenide materials.

Stage is the project (startup): Method of synthesis and growth of semiconductor crystals.

Approximate cost for the implementation of the project (startup): UAH 1.2 million.
