Photoelectrochemical Cell Engineering for Solar Energy Conversion

Dan Zhang

Solar energy is the most abundant energy source, harnessing solar energy holds the solution to the challenge of increasing global energy demand and reducing our dependence on fossil fuels. Photovoltaics which directly convert solar energy into electricity ...

EPFL2023

Glass-free, lightweight, photovoltaic modules have the potential to enable new uses of solar in building integrated and vehicle integrated applications. Glass-free modules have the advantages of reduced weight, lower-cost mounting solutions, and reduced tr ...

IEEE-INST ELECTRICAL ELECTRONICS ENGINEERS INC2023

To solve the toxicity issues related to lead-based halide perovskitesolar cells, the lead-free double halide perovskite Cs2AgBiBr6 is proposed. However, reduced rate of charge transferin double perovskites affects optoelectronic performance. We designeda s ...

Corrosion testing of solar cells: Wear-out degradation behavior

Christophe Ballif, Alessandro Francesco Aldo Virtuani, Luca Gnocchi, Andrew Wayne Fairbrother

Corrosion is one of the main end-of-life degradation and failure modes in photovoltaic (PV) modules. However, it is a gradual process and can take many years to become a major risk factor because of the slow accumulation of water and acetic acid (from enca ...

Electrical Losses Mitigation in Silicon Heterojunction Solar Cells

Laurie-Lou Senaud

To overcome the worldwide challenges of climate change, photovoltaics is foreseen to play a significant role in the world electricity production. Nowadays, single junction crystalline silicon (c-Si) based solar cells hold the largest share of the global ph ...

EPFL2021

The emergence of high-efficiency photovoltaic research is undergoing intense study and is technologically desirable to meet sustainable energy and environmental demand. However, every single solar cell has a theoretical power conversion efficiency limit, a ...
