Empa researchers have established a new efficiency record of 22.2% for flexible CIGS solar cells on the polymer film, one year after declaring an efficiency record.

AFM stands for atomic force microscopy and is a type of scanning probe microscope (SPM). SPMs use a probe to evaluate local characteristics such as friction, magnetism, and height. AFM acquires an image by raster-scanning the probe across a small sample area, while simultaneously assessing the local
