The boron-tailing myth in hydrogenated amorphous silicon solar cells

Christophe Ballif, Franz-Josef Haug, Matthieu Despeisse, Grégory Bugnon, Michael Elias Stückelberger

The boron-tailing effect in hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) solar cells describes the reduced charge collection specifically in the blue part of the spectrum for absorber layers deposited above a critical temperature. This effect limits the device ...

APCVD of dual layer transparent conductive oxides for photovoltaic applications

Benoît Florent Paul Delaup, Monica Morales Masis

We report the atmospheric pressure chemical vapour deposition (APCVD) of a dual layer transparent conductive oxide (TCO). This combines a fluorine doped tin oxide (FTO) base layer with a fluorine doped zinc oxide (FZO) top layer, where we seek to utilise t ...

Unraveling the Reasons for Efficiency Loss in Perovskite Solar Cells

Michael Graetzel, Mohammad Khaja Nazeeruddin, Robin Humphry-Baker, Peng Gao, Jingshan Luo, Yonghui Lee

The effect of the presence of unreacted PbI2 on the perovskite solar cells efficiency is reported. N,N-Dimethylformamide vapor treatment is introduced to study the influence of complete conversion to a power conversion efficiency of the device. It is disco ...

Combinatorial Characterization of TiO2 Chemical Vapor Deposition Utilizing Titanium Isopropoxide

Patrik Willi Hoffmann, Yury Kuzminykh, Michael Oliver Reinke, Evgeniy Ponomarev

The combinatorial characterization of the growth kinetics in chemical vapor deposition processes is challenging because precise information about the local precursor flow is usually difficult to access. In consequence, combinatorial chemical vapor depositi ...

Solid on liquid deposition, a review of technological solutions

Roland Andreas Bitterli, Laure Jeandupeux

Solid-on-liquid deposition (SOLID) techniques are of great interest to the MEMS and NEMS (Micro- and Nano Electro Mechanical Systems) community because of potential applications in biomedical engineering, on-chip liquid trapping, tunable micro-lenses, and ...

Tuning the porosity of zinc oxide electrodes: from dense to nanopillar films

Christophe Ballif, Benoît Florent Paul Delaup, Sylvain Nicolay, Björn Niesen, Monica Morales Masis, Lorenzo Fanni

Thin films with tunable porosity are of high interest in applications such as gas sensing and antireflective coatings. We report a facile and scalable method to fabricate ZnO electrodes with tuneable porosity. By adjusting the substrate temperature and rat ...

Atomic-Layer-Deposited Transparent Electrodes for Silicon Heterojunction Solar Cells

Christophe Ballif

We examine damage-free transparent-electrode deposition to fabricate high-efficiency amorphous silicon/crystalline silicon heterojunction solar cells. Such solar cells usually feature sputtered transparent electrodes, the deposition of which may damage the ...

BiVO4 thin film photoanodes grown by chemical vapor deposition

Esther Alarcon Llado, Le Chen

BiVO4 thin film photoanodes were grown by vapor transport chemical deposition on FTO/glass substrates. By controlling the flow rate, the temperatures of the Bi and V sources (Bi metal and V2O5 powder, respectively), and the temperature of the deposition zo ...

Evaluation of niobium dimethylamino-ethoxide for chemical vapour deposition of niobium oxide thin films

Patrik Willi Hoffmann, Ali Dabirian, Yury Kuzminykh, Estelle Wagner, Giacomo Benvenuti

Chemical vapour deposition (CVD) processes depend on the availability of suitable precursors. Precursors that deliver a stable vapour pressure are favourable in classical CVD processes, as they ensure process reproducibility. In high vacuum CVD (HV-CVD) pr ...
