A team staffed with researchers from the Centre for Solar Energy and Hydrogen Research Baden-W\u00fcrttemberg (ZSW), Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg (MLU) and the Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin (HZB) recently identified a key point where the performance of thin-film solar cells can be improved for the cell to convert more sunlight into electricity. Published in the renowned science journal Nature Communications in August 2020, the results of this investigation reveal how manufacturers of CIGS thin-film solar cells can achieve even higher efficiencies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.zsw-bw.de\/fileadmin\/user_upload\/PDFs\/Pressemitteilungen\/2020\/pr20-2020-ZSW-ResultsProjectEFFCIS.pdf\">For the
