Production volume of PV modules increases at > 35% per year, but one is yet far from making a global impact on energy supply. One of the obstacles is given by the present high production costs of PV modules. A possibility to reduce costs are thin-film PV m ...
In the context of the diminishing fossil energy resources and global warming, much research is focused on sustainable energy sources. The research that is presented in this thesis falls in this category as it contributes to the development of a device that ...
Zinc oxide (ZnO) is a material that belongs to the family of Transparent Conductives Oxides (TCO). Its non-toxicity and the abundant availability in the Earth's crust of its components make it an ideal candidate as electrical transparent contact for thin-f ...
Zinc oxide (ZnO) is now often used as a transparent conductive oxide for contacts in thin-film silicon solar cells. This paper presents a study of ZnO material deposited by the low-pressure chemical vapour deposition technique, in a pressure range below th ...
The electronic properties of amorphous and ion-implanted polycrystalline SnO2 films have been studied using x-ray photoemission spectromicroscopy. First, we analysed the degree of oxidation and the homogeneity of as-deposited films. The SnO and SnO2 phases ...
A unique nanostructured rod-like morphol. of hematite (α-Fe2O3), designed with no grain boundaries, has been investigated for the aim of a direct splitting of water at the hematite/electrolyte interface. Photoelectrochem. properties were studied by steady- ...
Polycrystalline Boron-doped ZnO films deposited by low pressure chemical vapor deposition technique are developed for their use as transparent contacts for thin-film silicon solar cells. The size of the columnar grains that constitute the ZnO films is rela ...
A combined thermal and simple kinetic model is applied to a small single solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC, 20 cm2 square cell of anode supported electrolyte with 1 cm2 active area). The aim was to compute the temperature field to analyze the operating condition ...
Temperature and electric field dependencies of mobility and concentration transients of electrons and holes using modified charge extraction by the linearly increasing voltage (CELIV) method in slightly doped n-type, p-type and undoped microcrystalline sil ...
The stability in humid environment of low pressure chemical vapor deposited boron doped zinc oxide (LPCVD ZnO:B) used as transparent conductive oxide in thin film silicon solar cells is investigated. Damp heat treatment (exposition to humid and hot atmosph ...
