Selenization technique was employed to grow CuInSe[sub 2] (CIS) films on Mo coated glass substrates. Small area solar cells as well as 1 ft[sup 2] area modules were fabricated using these selenized layers and the ZnO/CdS/CIS/Mo/glass device structure. Several modules with close to 6 W power output were demonstrated. The aperture area efficiencies of these modules are about 7%.
