Bloo’s Solar Brush is a third-generation, three-dimensional, single-junction architecture technology. The module is said to provide more surface area, better light trapping and less recombination, which produces higher efficiency and a total power output of 1.5 to 3 times higher than current technologies, the company says.

Together, Bloo Solar and CVD will develop a key process for transparent conductive oxide (TCO) coating. CVD Equipment supplies offline and online CVDgCoat(TM) APCVD for fluorine-doped SnO2 (SnO2:F) coating and offline LPCVD for ZnO coating.
