Chattez avec Graph Search
Posez n’importe quelle question sur les cours, conférences, exercices, recherches, actualités, etc. de l’EPFL ou essayez les exemples de questions ci-dessous.
AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.
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 ...
We developed a low-temperature atomic layer deposition route to deposit phase pure and crystalline hematite (alpha-Fe2O3) films at 230 degrees C without the need for postannealing. Homogenous and conformal deposition with good aspect ratio coverage was dem ...
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 ...
Crystalline silicon (c-Si) homojunction solar cells account for over 90% of the current photovoltaic market. However, further progress of this technology is limited by recombinative losses occurring at their metal-semiconductor contacts. The goal of this t ...
This thesis investigates the link between the plasma deposition conditions and microcrystalline silicon (μc-Si:H) material quality for thin-film silicon photovoltaic applications. The role of interfaces and the μc-Si:H material quality on the device perfor ...
Motivated to revolutionize our today's fossil fuels based energy production, my work concentrated on the investigation of promising low-cost materials for photoelectrochemical hydrogen production and photovoltaic electricity generation. Hydrogen presents a ...
Thin-film silicon solar cells are one possible answer to the increasing energy demand of today. Hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) plays a crucial role therein - as absorber layers, but also as doped layers to build p-i -n junctions. This thesis is de ...
We report on the electrodeposition of CuX (X = Cl, Br) thin films on fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO) electrodes. The electrodeposited CuX thin films, for the first time, were used as intermediates to prepare CuO thin films. Calcination of the as-prepared Cu ...
Dielectric layers are of major importance in crystalline silicon solar cells processing, especially as antireflection coatings and for surface passivation purposes. In this paper we investigate the fixed charge densities (Q(fix)) and the effective lifetime ...
Carrier recombination at the metal-semiconductor contacts has become a significant obstacle to the further advancement of high-efficiency diffused-junction silicon solar cells. This paper provides the proof-of-concept of a procedure to reduce contact recom ...
