Effects of X-rays on Perovskite Solar Cells

Christophe Ballif, Björn Niesen, Michael Elias Stückelberger, Jérémie Werner, Yun Luo, Xueying Li

Synchrotron micro- and nanoprobe beamlines have demonstrated great potential to advance photovoltaic devices. Most importantly, their small X-ray spot size has enabled the direct correlation of electrical performance with elemental composition at subgrain ...

The effect of cooling press on the encapsulation properties of crystalline photovoltaic modules: residual stress and adhesion

Christophe Ballif, Hengyu Li, Laure-Emmanuelle Perret Aebi, Yun Luo, Valentin Chapuis

A high-quality encapsulation process is crucial to ensuring the performance and long-term reliability of photovoltaic (PV) modules. In crystalline Si technology-based modules, poly (ethylene-co-vinyl acetate) (EVA) is the most widely used PV encapsulant. I ...

Effect of Cooling Press on the Optical Transmission through Photovoltaic Encapsulants

Christophe Ballif, Hengyu Li, Laure-Emmanuelle Perret Aebi, Yun Luo

In certain laminators for poly (ethylene-co-vinyl acetate) (EVA) encapsulation process of photovoltaic modules, cooling press (CP) is applied to the module after encapsulation. Here, the effect of CP on the optical transmission through common PV encapsulan ...

Optical transmission as a fast and non-destructive tool for determination of ethylene-co-vinyl acetate curing state in photovoltaic modules

Christophe Ballif, Hengyu Li, Laure-Emmanuelle Perret Aebi, Yun Luo

Poly(ethylene-co-vinyl acetate) (EVA) is the primary polymer used for encapsulation of photovoltaic (PV) modules. Its degree of cross-linking (gel content) is taken as a major quality reference. The EVA gel content is normally measured by Soxhlet extractio ...

Insights into the encapsulation process of photovoltaic modules: GC-MS analysis on the curing step of Poly (ethylene-co-vinyl acetate) (EVA) encapsulant

Christophe Ballif, Hengyu Li, Laure-Emmanuelle Perret Aebi, Yun Luo

Appropriate encapsulation schemes are essential in protecting the active components of the photovoltaic (PV) module against weathering and to ensure long term reliability. For crystalline cells, Poly (ethylene-co-vinyl acetate) (EVA) is the most commonly u ...
