A method for for producing a photovoltaic device

Abstract

The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a photovoltaic device comprising: forming a porous first conducting layer on one side of a porous insulating substrate, coating the first conducting layer with a layer of grains of a doped semiconducting material to form a structure, performing a first heat treatment of the structure to bond the grains to the first conducting layer, forming electrically insulating layers on surfaces of the first conducting layer, forming a second conducting layer on an opposite side of the porous insulating substrate, applying a charge conducting material onto the surfaces of the grains, inside pores of the first conducting layer, and inside pores of the insulating substrate, and electrically connecting the charge conducting material to the second conducting layer.
