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.
The advantages and limitations of photovoltaic solar modules for energy generation are reviewed with their operation principles and physical efficiency limits. Although the main materials currently used or investigated and the associated fabrication techno ...
Three-layer structures of thick (>5 μm) films of nanosized titanium dioxide, zirconium dioxide, and carbon have been screen-printed on a semi-prodn. level for use in photosensitized photovoltaic devices. The films have been characterized using SEM, x-ray d ...
When silicon thin films are deposited by plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition in a plasma regime close to that of the formation of powder, a new type of material, named polymorphous silicon (pm-Si:H) is obtained. pmSi:H exhibits enhanced transport pro ...
Designing plasma-enhanced chemical vapour deposition (PECVD) reactors to coat large-area glass plates (similar to1 m(2)) for flat panel display or solar cell manufacturing raises challenging issues in physics and chemistry as well as mechanical, thermal, a ...
A combined PVD/PECVD process for the vacuum deposition of titaniumcontainingamorphoushydrogenatedcarbonfilms is described. Elemental compositions of the deposited films have been determined by in situ core level photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The long-t ...
When silicon thin films are deposited by plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition in a plasma regime close to the formation of powder, a new type of material, called hydrogenated polymorphous silicon (pm-Si:H) is obtained. This material has increased tran ...
The aim of this communication is to show that it is possible to extend the model of the electronic transport developed for amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) to microcrystalline silicon (μc-Si:H). By describing the electronic transport with the μ0τR products (mobi ...
'Micromorph' tandem solar cells consisting of a microcrystalline silicon bottom cell and an amorphous silicon top cell are considered as one of the most promising new thin-film silicon solar-cell concepts. Their promise lies in the hope of simultaneously a ...
Nanocryst. solar cells were made by incorporation of cis-dithiocyanato-bis(2,2'-bipyridyl-4,4'-dicarboxylate) ruthenium (II) into sputter deposited titanium oxide films. After a pyridine treatment, it was possible to achieve a photoelec. conversion efficie ...
Nanocryst. TiO2-based films with a special penniform microstructure were prepd. by reactive d.c. magnetron sputtering followed by dye sensitization. The films were integrated in a solar cell configuration and were able to yield a higher photocurrent than s ...
