Chemical Trend of Nonradiative Recombination in Cu(In,Ga)Se2 Alloys

Nonradiative recombination in Cu(In,Ga)Se2 (CIGS) solar cells has long been attributed to the antisite defects MCu (M = In, Ga), but the underlying mechanism is still elusive. Using rigorous first-principles calculations, we demonstrate that the antisites ...

Electrical Losses Mitigation in Silicon Heterojunction Solar Cells

Laurie-Lou Senaud

To overcome the worldwide challenges of climate change, photovoltaics is foreseen to play a significant role in the world electricity production. Nowadays, single junction crystalline silicon (c-Si) based solar cells hold the largest share of the global ph ...

Ligand Locking on Quantum Dot Surfaces via a Mild Reactive Surface Treatment

Raffaella Buonsanti, Aurélien Bornet, Anna Loiudice, Ona Segura Lecina

At the outermost surface of colloidal QDs are organic surface ligands which dynamically bind and release in solution to control the growth kinetics, control the size/shape of the crystals, passivate surface states, and provide colloidal stability through f ...

Optimizing and Implementing Light Trapping in Thin Film, Mesostructured Photoanodes

Sophia Haussener, Silvan Suter, Rafael Angelus Graf, Diana Moreno Garcia

Stable semiconductor photoelectrodes for water-splitting often exhibit long absorption lengths and poor properties for the efficient separation and transport of photogenerated charges. We propose a combination of resonant and geometric light trapping for t ...

Annealing of Silicon Heterojunction Solar Cells: Interplay of Solar Cell and Indium Tin Oxide Properties

Christophe Ballif, Raphaël François Lemerle, Mathieu Gérard Boccard, Jan Haschke, Brahim Aissa

In this paper, we report the evolution of silicon heterojunction solar cell properties focusing, in particular, on the indium tin oxide (ITO) layers upon consecutive thermal annealing. We find that the charge carrier density
