A micro-power energy harvesting system based on core(crystalline Si)-shell(amorphous Si) nanowire solar cells together with a nanowire-modified CMOS sensing platform have been developed to be used in a dust-sized autonomous chemical sensor node. The mote ( ...
Thin-film silicon technology is a major candidate to comply with the ever-increasing global energy demand. The small thickness of silicon allows high industrial throughput and low material usage and subsequently opens new avenues to mass-production of low- ...
High-performance transparent conducting oxides (TCOs) have significance for optimising PV performance. The efficiency of the resulting solar cells is dependent particularly on achieving high light scattering, low resistivity and low absorption (via low fre ...
Solar photovoltaic energy production relies on the direct conversion of sunlight into electricity. Silicon thin-film solar cells represent a reliable and environmentally friendly technology to make photovoltaics economically viable. As these solar cells do ...
In this contribution, we shortly review the main features of amorphous/crystalline silicon heterojunction (SHJ) solar cells, including interface defects and requirements for high quality interfaces. We show how a process flow with a limited number of proce ...
Thin-film solar cells based on amorphous and microcrystalline silicon require thin photoactive layers to ensure a satisfactory collection of the photogenerated carriers. The small thickness is advantageous in terms of raw material consumption and industria ...
Basic properties of plasma-deposited amorphous and microcrystalline layers are summarized. Limitations for solar cell performance, which are a result of these basic properties are pointed out. Efficiencies and other solar cell parameters obtained for the b ...
We demonstrate a single-step X-ray irradiation process that yields high-quality Cu(In1-xGax)S-2 nanocrystals in colloidal solutions, with complete control of size and composition. Thin films produced by drop-casting exhibit high-quality photoresponse, conf ...
We developed a new industry-compatible ink-based process to produce efficient chalcopyrite CuIn1-xGaxSe2 thin-film solar cells. Metallic In and Ga nanoparticles were produced by purely physical methods, using a low-cost and non-explosive solvent. The solve ...
Polycrystalline zinc oxide (ZnO) films, prepared by low-pressure chemical vapor deposition are investigated in this thesis. ZnO belongs to the class of transparent conductive oxide materials, as it is transparent to light from the visible to the near-infra ...
