Home > Press > New NanoMarkets Report Identifies Trends and Opportunities in Thin-Film Silicon Photovoltaic Materials
Abstract:
According to NanoMarkets, an industry analysis firm based here, Amorphous silicon (a-Si) -- a thin-film photovoltaic (TFPV) material that has been around since the late 70's -- will continue to lead the TFPV space for several years to come. The firm projects that $1.3 billion in revenues for a-Si based photovoltaics this year that will grow to $4.1 billion in the year 2014.
These and other findings are from the firm's newest report titled, "Materials Markets for Thin-Film Silicon Photovoltaics." The report is the next in a series from the firm that addresses emerging solar energy markets. For additional information please visit the firm's website at www.nanomarkets.net.

About the report:
The new NanoMarkets report, "Materials Markets for Thin-Film Silicon Photovoltaics" both analyzes and quantifies the opportunities that are emerging for materials suppliers and device manufacturers as the result of further development of a-Si PV and new so-called third-generation silicon PV. The report focuses on the core absorber materials, but also covers materials for electrodes, encapsulation, dielectrics, etc.; all of which are critical to the performance of thin-film silicon PV. The report begins with a full review of the state of the art in a-Si and other silicon-based PV materials and manufacturing. It also includes strategic profiles of leading suppliers of materials into the thin-film silicon sector.
