Microstructural and electrical characterization of high temperature passivating contacts for silicon solar cells

Sofia Libraro

Recombination at metal/semiconductor interfaces represents the main limitation in mainstream c-Si solar cells, primarily based on the passivated emitter and rear cell (PERC) concept. Full-area passivating contacts based on SiOx/poly-Si stacks are a candida ...

AC loss and electrical resistance of the RW3 diffusion-bonded joint

Vincenzo D'Auria

For the European DEMO fusion reactor, several options of the Toroidal Field (TF) coil design were proposed. The winding of the TF coil option 1 is based on React&Wind (RW), Nb3Sn, graded conductors in order to optimize the amount of superconductor accordin ...

THz characterization of GeSn monocrystalline thin films

Anna Fontcuberta i Morral, Andrea Giunto, Nicolas Philippe Laurent Humblot

The employment of other group IV materials, such as alloys of germanium and tin, poses a solution for overcoming the efficiency limit of silicon that arises from its indirect bandgap. By using THz spectroscopy, the optoelectronic properties, such as conduc ...

Method to Measure Area Specific Resistance and Chromium Migration Simultaneously from Solid Oxide Fuel Cell Interconnect Materials

Jan Van Herle, Michele Bianco

Chromium evaporation is identified as a major degradation mechanism in solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) stacks. The major chromium source is the commonly used stainless steel interconnects, thus raising a need for protective coatings on the interconnect steel. ...

TacTiles: Dual-Mode Low-Power Electromagnetic Actuators for Rendering Continuous Contact and Spatial Haptic Patterns in VR

Herbert Shea, Juan José Zarate, Ronan Julien Hinchet

We introduce TacTiles, light (1.8g), low-power (130 mV), and small form -factor (1cm(3)) electromagnetic actuators that can form a flexible haptic array to provide localized tactile feedback. Our novel hardware design uses a custom 8 -layer PCB, dampening ...
