ZnO Transparent conductive oxide for thin film silicon solar cells
There is general agreement that the future production of electric energy has to be renewable and sustainable in the long term. Photovoltaic (PV) is booming with more than 7GW produced in 2008 and will therefore play an important role in the future electricity supply mix. Currently, crystalline silicon (c-Si) dominates the market with a share of about 90%. Reducing the cost per watt peak and ene...
متن کاملAtomic layer deposited gallium oxide buffer layer enables 1.2 V open-circuit voltage in cuprous oxide solar cells.
The power conversion efficiency of solar cells based on copper (I) oxide (Cu2 O) is enhanced by atomic layer deposition of a thin gallium oxide (Ga2 O3 ) layer. By improving band-alignment and passivating interface defects, the device exhibits an open-circuit voltage of 1.20 V and an efficiency of 3.97%, showing potential of over 7% efficiency.
متن کاملAtomic structure of interface states in silicon heterojunction solar cells.
Combining orientation dependent electrically detected magnetic resonance and g tensor calculations based on density functional theory we assign microscopic structures to paramagnetic states involved in spin-dependent recombination at the interface of hydrogenated amorphous silicon crystalline silicon (a-Si:H/c-Si) heterojunction solar cells. We find that (i) the interface exhibits microscopic r...
متن کاملEffect of Seed Layer on the Morphology of Zinc Oxide Nanorods as an Electron Transport Layer in Polymer Solar Cells
Zinc oxide has been considered as a promising semiconductor material for fabrication of transparent conductive oxides (TCOs), electronic devices, optoelectronics, and solar cells. Among the various morphologies of zinc oxide, nanorods are more widely used because of the ease of synthesis and providing a direct path for the transport of charge carriers. The electrochemical deposi...
متن کاملANTI-REFLECTION LAYER AT THE TCO/Si INTERFACE FOR HIGH EFFICIENCY THIN-FILM SOLAR CELLS DEPOSITED ON ROUGH LP-CVD FRONT ZnO
ZnO layers with a wide range of surface roughness and morphologies can be deposited by low pressure chemical vapor deposition (LP-CVD). In this paper, we investigate the effect of a low-resistivity TiO2-ZnO bi-layer incorporated as an anti-reflection coating between the rough ZnO front transparent conductive oxide (TCO) and the silicon layer, for thin film p-i-n microcrystalline silicon solar c...
