MULTI-LAYER THIN FILM FOR PHOTOVOLTAIC CELL
A multilayer thin film for a photovoltaic cell includes a plurality of low-refractivity thin film layers and a plurality of high-refractivity thin film layers alternately coating a transparent substrate. The thickest layer of the low-refractivity thin film layers is thicker than all of the high-refractivity thin film layers and is one and half times thicker than all of the other layers of the low-refractivity thin film layers.
