[...] les cellules CIGS peuvent également être fabriquées par impression. Dans ce cas, les éléments requis sont immergés sous forme de nanoparticules dans une encre. Une imprimante spécifique est alors employée pour déposer les différentes couches composant les cellules, à température ambiante et dans un environnement classique (pas de vide, d'atmosphère inerte, etc.).
