This book was released on 2011-11-16 with total page 588 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today’s solar cell multi-GW market is dominated by crystalline silicon (c-Si) wafer technology, however new cell concepts are entering the market. One very promising solar cell design to answer these needs is the silicon hetero-junction solar cell, of which the emitter and back surface field are basically produced by a low temperature growth of ultra-thin layers of amorphous silicon. In this design, amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) constitutes both „emitter“ and „base-contact/back surface field“ on both sides of a thin crystalline silicon wafer-base (c-Si) where the electrons and holes are photogenerated; at the same time, a-Si:H passivates the c-Si surface. Recently, cell efficiencies above 23% have been demonstrated for such solar cells. In this book, the editors present an overview of the state-of-the-art in physics and technology of amorphous-crystalline heterostructure silicon solar cells. The heterojunction concept is introduced, processes and resulting properties of the materials used in the cell and their heterointerfaces are discussed and characterization techniques and simulation tools are presented.
Download or read book Chemical Solution Deposition of Functional Oxide Thin Films written by Theodor Schneller and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2014-01-24 with total page 801 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first text to cover all aspects of solution processed functional oxide thin-films. Chemical Solution Deposition (CSD) comprises all solution based thin- film deposition techniques, which involve chemical reactions of precursors during the formation of the oxide films, i. e. sol-gel type routes, metallo-organic decomposition routes, hybrid routes, etc. While the development of sol-gel type processes for optical coatings on glass by silicon dioxide and titanium dioxide dates from the mid-20th century, the first CSD derived electronic oxide thin films, such as lead zirconate titanate, were prepared in the 1980’s. Since then CSD has emerged as a highly flexible and cost-effective technique for the fabrication of a very wide variety of functional oxide thin films. Application areas include, for example, integrated dielectric capacitors, ferroelectric random access memories, pyroelectric infrared detectors, piezoelectric micro-electromechanical systems, antireflective coatings, optical filters, conducting-, transparent conducting-, and superconducting layers, luminescent coatings, gas sensors, thin film solid-oxide fuel cells, and photoelectrocatalytic solar cells. In the appendix detailed “cooking recipes” for selected material systems are offered.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this work, we have developed thin layers deposited by Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD) technique to be applied in high-efficiency crystalline silicon solar cells. In particular, we selected to study the aluminium oxide (Al2O3) as a surface passivation mechanism and the titanium dioxide (TiO2) as a selective contact for electrons. To characterize the Al2O3 we have done two studies: deposition thickness and pre-deposition cleaning process. In both studies we have measured the effective surface recombination velocity (Seff), where we get results comparable to the state of the art with Seff

Download or read book Metal Oxide Thin Films for Solar Energy and Industrial Applications written by Dominic Eya and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2012 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thin films of the metallic oxide have a wide variety of applications such as surface acoustic wave devices (SAW), bulk acoustic wave devices (BAW), acoustic-optic devices, micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS), band pass filters, optical wave-guide, and laser deflectors using piezoelectric or piezooptic properties. With appropriate dopants such as aluminium, some of the oxides are electrically conductive and could be employed as transparent conducting electrodes for flat panel displays and solar cells. Due to their unique conducting mechanism based on oxygen vacancies, the oxides are also used in oxygen gas sensors, window layers in copper indium diselenide based heterojunction solar cells, and high temperature solid lubricants in gas turbine engines, and in electro chromic devices. Conducting metal oxide thin films are good infrared detectors, reflectors and are applied as energy efficient window treatments where high infrared reflectance and low thermal emittance are required.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The world of today must face up to two contradictory energy problems: on the one hand, there is the sharply growing consumer demand in countries such as China and India. On the other hand, natural resources are dwindling. Moreover, many of those countries which still possess substantial gas and oil supplies are politically unstable. As a result, renewable natural energy sources have received great attention. Among these, solar-cell technology is one of the most promising candidates. However, there still remains the problem of the manufacturing costs of such cells. Many attempts have been made to reduce the production costs of conventional solar cells (manufactured from monocrystalline silicon using diffusion methods) by instead using cheaper grades of silicon, and simpler pn-junction fabrication. That is the hero of this book; the heterojunction solar cell.
