Probing the Nature of Annealing Silicon Carbide Samples for Solar Cell

SiC powder preparation using Sol-Gel method. The size of nano-particles grows as the temperature exceeds 900° C. Size of probable agglomerations produced, is approximately less than 50nm. The surface is suitable to be used for dye solar cells. SiC emission occurs at wavelength area of 11.3μm or wave number area of 884.95 cm-1. In this paper probing the nature of annealed SiC samples in mixture,...

Effect of Silicon Nanowire on Crystalline Silicon Solar Cell Characteristics

Nanowires (NWs) are recently used in several sensor or actuator devices to improve their ordered characteristics. Silicon nanowire (Si NW) is one of the most attractive one-dimensional nanostructures semiconductors because of its unique electrical and optical properties. In this paper, silicon nanowire (Si NW), is synthesized and characterized for application in photovoltaic device. Si NWs are ...

Annealing Behaviour and Nature of Defects of Light-soaked Microcrystalline Silicon Solar Cells

In this paper, we show that the kinetics of annealing of light-induced defects in microcrystalline silicon is similar to that of amorphous silicon. Dilution series of pin and nip single-junction microcrystalline silicon (μc-Si:H) solar cells were light-soaked (AM 1.5, 1000h at 50°C). Their relative efficiency loss between initial and degraded states depends on the i-layer crystallinity. Subsequ...

Effect of Annealing on Physical Properties of Cu2ZnSnS4 (CZTS) Thin Films for Solar Cell Applications

Cu2ZnSnS4 (CZTS) thin films were prepared by directly sputteringCu (In,Ga)Se2 quaternary target consisting of (Cu: 25%, Zn: 12.5%, Sn; 12.5%and S: 50%). The composition and structure of CZTS layers have beeninvestigated after annealing at 200 0C, 350 0C and 500 0C under vacuum. Theresults show that recrystallization of the CZTS thin film occurs and increasingthe grain size with a preferred orie...
