Abstract

See full text

Disclosed is a method which includes forming a bottom metallic electrode on an insulating substrate; forming a semiconductor junction on the metallic electrode; forming a transparent conducting overlayer in contact with the semiconductor junction; and forming a metallic layer in contact with the transparent conducting overlayer, wherein the metallic layer is formed by a plating process. The plating process may be an electroplating process or an electroless plating process. The transparent conducting overlayer may be carbon nanotubes or graphene. The semiconductor junction may be a p-i-n semiconductor junction, a p-n semiconductor junction, an n-p semiconductor junction or an n-i-p semiconductor junction.
