This book was released on 2007-10-18 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thin films of amorphous nano-, micro- and polycrystalline silicon, and related alloys, are used in active-matrix liquid crystal displays, solar cells, digital imagers and scanners. These products make large-area electronics the fastest growing semiconductor technology today and are encouraging further research on materials and devices. The success of amorphous silicon and polysilicon materials in commercial products is the driving force for the topic being one of the longest-running symposia and proceedings series of the Materials Research Society, providing excellent forums for reporting research results, exchanging ideas, and discussing scientific and technological issues. This volume, the most recent in the series, focuses on: defects and metastability; solar cells; alloys; crystallization and crystallization techniques; micro- and nanocrystalline silicon; thin-film growth; flexible substrates; novel applications; thin-film transistors; imagers and sensors; electronics and flexible substrates; electronic properties and metastability; structural properties; and nanocrystals, nanoclusters and nanowires.

This book was released on 2011-11-28 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Among various applications, solar cells for photovoltaic solar energy and thin-film transistors for flat-panel display have been the two major driving forces for research and development of thin-film silicon materials and devices. In the last few years, the thin-film silicon community has mainly focused on thin-film silicon solar cells to address the issues of efficiency, manufacturing capability and manufacturing cost. This volume includes sixty-eight papers presented at Symposium A, "Amorphous and Polycrystalline Thin-Film Silicon Science and Technology-2011," which took place April 25-29, during the 2011 MRS Spring Meeting in San Francisco, California. The symposium covered the science and technology of thin-film silicon based materials, reviewed recent progress, addressed the scientific and technical issues in the field, and this year, focused sessions were held on the topic of solar cell efficiency.

Download or read book Thin Film Compound Semiconductor Photovoltaics 2007 Volume 1012 written by Timothy Gessert and published by . This book was released on 2007-11-14 with total page 544 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thin-film compound semiconductor photovoltaic solar cells have demonstrated efficiencies of nearly 20% and are leading candidates to provide lower-cost energy due to potential advantages in manufacturing and materials costs. To fulfill the promise, a number of technical issues are being addressed, including a lack of fundamental understanding of these unique materials, devices and processes for large-area deposition. This book focuses on advances in the materials science, chemistry, processing and device issues of thin-film compound semiconductor materials that are used, or have potential use, in photovoltaic solar cells and related applications. Topics include: growth and performance of compound thin-film solar cells; novel materials and processes; defects and impurities; industrial perspectives; contacts and interfaces; grain boundaries and inhomogeneities; and structural, optical and electronic characterization.

Download or read book Solar Cells written by Leonid A. Kosyachenko and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2011-11-02 with total page 472 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first book of this four-volume edition is dedicated to one of the most promising areas of photovoltaics, which has already reached a large-scale production of the second-generation thin-film solar modules and has resulted in building the powerful solar plants in several countries around the world. Thin-film technologies using direct-gap semiconductors such as CIGS and CdTe offer the lowest manufacturing costs and are becoming more prevalent in the industry allowing to improve manufacturability of the production at significantly larger scales than for wafer or ribbon Si modules. It is only a matter of time before thin films like CIGS and CdTe will replace wafer-based silicon solar cells as the dominant photovoltaic technology. Photoelectric efficiency of thin-film solar modules is still far from the theoretical limit. The scientific and technological problems of increasing this key parameter of the solar cell are discussed in several chapters of this volume.
