Solution-based heteroepitaxial growth of stable mixed cation/anion hybrid perovskite thin film under ambient condition via a scalable crystal engineering approach

Shaik Mohammed Zakeeruddin, Fabrizio Giordano, Narges Yaghoobi Nia

The performance of perovskite solar cells is under direct control of the perovskite film quality and controlling the crystalinity and orientation of solution-processed perovskite film is a fundamental challenge. In this study, we present a scalable fabrica ...

Optimized Design of Silicon Heterojunction Solar Cells for Field Operating Conditions

Christophe Ballif, Mathieu Gérard Boccard, Jan Haschke, Jean Cattin, Brahim Aissa, Olivier Denis Dupré

Solar modules are currently characterised at standard test conditions (STC), defined at 1000 W/m2 and 25 °C. However, solar modules in actual outdoor operating conditions typically operate at lower illumination and higher temperature than STC, which signif ...
