[IEEE 2019 IEEE 46th Photovoltaic Specialists Conference (PVSC) - Chicago, IL, USA (2019.6.16-2019.6.21)] 2019 IEEE 46th Photovoltaic Specialists Conference (PVSC) - Control of Texture Size on As-Cut Crystalline Silicon by Microparticle-Assisted Texturing (MPAT) Process
摘要: The texture size on as-cut crystalline silicon (c-Si) is drastically reduced from ~22 μm to <2.7 μm when mixing glass microparticles with conventional alkaline texturing solutions. The processing time and c-Si loss are considerably reduced from >15 to ~3 min and from >8 to 2 μm (for one side), respectively. Thus, this process is applicable to very thin c-Si. High-quality surface passivation with the effective minority carrier lifetimes >7 ms, corresponding to surface recombination velocity of 0.38 cm/s was possible. After anti-reflection coating, the reflectivity ~0.4% at 600nm, and <2% in wide wavelength 450?950nm was achieved on this new texture.

Tuning the hybridization of local exciton and chargea??transfer states in highly efficient organic photovoltaic cells
摘要: Decreasing the energy loss is one of the most feasible ways to improve the efficiencies of organic photovoltaic (OPV) cells. Recent studies have suggested that non-radiative energy loss ( ) is the dominant factor that hinders further improvements in state-of-the-art OPV cells. However, there is no rational molecular design strategy for OPV materials with suppressed . In this work, taking molecular surface electrostatic potential (ESP) as a quantitative parameter, we establish a general relationship between chemical structure and intermolecular interactions. The results reveal that increasing the ESP difference between donor and acceptor will enhance the intermolecular interaction. In the OPV cells, the enhanced intermolecular interaction will increase the charge transfer (CT) state ratio in its hybridization with local exciton to facilitate the charge generation but simultaneously result in a larger . These results suggest that finely tuning the ESP of OPV materials is a feasible method to further improve the efficiencies of OPV cells.

COMPARISON OF PERFORMANCES OF ORGANIC PHOTOVOLTAIC CELLS USING SubPc AS CENTRAL AMBIPOLAR LAYER IN TERNARY STRUCTURES AND AS ELECTRON ACCEPTOR IN BINARY STRUCTURES
摘要: We compare the performances of organic photovoltaic cells (OPVCs) based on binary and ternary planar heterojunctions. The organic active layers are pentathiophene (5T), subphthalocyanine (SubPc) and fullerene (C60). SubPc being an ambipolar material we used it either as electron acceptor in binary OPVCs or as central layer in ternary cells in order to increase the efficiency of OPVCs using 5T as electron donor. So, the different OPVC configurations were 5T/C60, 5T/SubPc and 5T/SubPc/C60. The effect of the different organic layer thicknesses on the device performances was studied. In order to understand the behavior of the different OPVC configurations, we proceeded with a morphological study. The influence of the high roughness of the 5T layer on the OPVCs performances is discussed. The best OPVCs performances are obtained with the binary structure 5T/SubPc. Its maximum efficiency corresponds to an increase of 50% compared to the OPVC based on the couple 5T/C60. External Quantum Efficiency measurements show that both layers participate to the current generation. The efficiency increase is mainly due to the increase of the open circuit voltage (Voc). In the case of ternary OPVCs, Voc is limited by the band structure of 5T and C60, moreover, the efficiency is also limited by the poor charge collection efficiency of the ternary structure and the series resistance of the three stacked organic layers.

摘要: Incorporating ZnTe:As back contact to CdTe thin film solar cells is an attractive alternative to Cu treated ZnTe back contacts, getting rid of Cu diffusion and subsequent long term stability issues. However, the Zn loss by the formation of volatile ZnCl2 during CdCl2 deposition heat treatment for the back-contact activation remains a challenge. The aim of this work is to develop an effective activation process for ZnTe:As back contacts, which is expected to improve CdTe solar cell efficiencies. To minimize Zn loss, a thin CdS sacrificial cap layer was evaluated which was deposited on ZnTe:As via MOCVD prior to the contact layer activation step.

摘要: In this work multi-cations hybrid perovskite thin film properties were explored by characterization techniques that proved to be very powerful for inorganic thin films. In particular, we report the evolution of the ambipolar diffusion length under different environmental or thermal stresses by Steady State Photocarrier Grating, directly observing the effects of oxygen absorption/desorption onto the material electronic properties. Moreover, the effects of illumination on the absorption properties were investigated via Fourier Transform Photocurrent Spectroscopy, a technique that allows to access to weak absorptions (E<Eg).

摘要: In this paper, we report findings from a micro CPV module, employing 170 μm GaAs-based 2J CPV cells, assembled on glass substrates using micro-transfer printing. The CPV array uses all-glass lens arrays to focus the light with a geometric concentration ratio of 740 suns, and a bifacial, mono-crystalline silicon solar cell behind the substrate to capture the diffuse component of the light. We found that the diffuse capture creates a significant performance boost over CPV alone, and study the role of bifacial capture on the overall performance. The highest combined efficiency with respect to global normal irradiance was 25.4% for the module, measured by outdoor testing in Washington, DC.

摘要: Laser patterning of seed layers for Cu electroplated interdigitated contacts on Ni/a-SiNx:H/Si substrates is presented. Damage was controlled by varying the laser conditions. Cu growths shorted the contacts due to conductive residues in the scribe lines, but were attenuated with pre-deposition etching yielding electrically-isolated plated fingers. Parasitically-plated Cu stripes were now observed in laser cuts, postulated due to Cu nucleation from high current densities at pinholes originating from laser and etch damage to the resistive a-SiNx:H. While a promising approach for contact processing, laser conditions must be carefully optimized to minimize substrate damage.

摘要: The impact of irradiance data collection location and degradation-informed module performance on irradiance-to-power model accuracy is evaluated.

摘要: Photoluminescence Excitation Spectroscopy (PLE) is a contactless characterization technique to quantify Shockley-Reed-Hall (SRH) lifetimes and recombination velocities in direct band gap experimental semiconductor materials and devices. It is also useful as to evaluate surface passivation and intermediate fabrication processes, since it can be implemented without the need for development of effective contact technologies. In this paper, we present a novel experimental PLE system for precision-based quantification of the aforementioned parameters as well as a system for which absolute PLE characterization may occur. Absolute PLE measurements can be used to directly calculate VOC for new photovoltaic (PV) material systems and devices. Key system capabilities include a continuous excitation spectrum from 300 nm –1.1 μm, automated characterization, up to 1 nm wavelength resolution (up to 60x higher than prior work), and a reduced ellipsometry requirement for post-processing of data. We utilize a GaAs double heterostructure (DH) and an InP crystalline wafer as calibration standards in comparison with data from an LED-based PLE to demonstrate the validity of the results obtained from this new system.

摘要: we investigate the potential and stability of perovskite(MaPbI3) as the hole-selective contact materials for silicon solar cells because perovskite has excellent carrier transport properties for both electrons and holes. We have overcome the problem of forming a continuous perovskite thin film on silicon due to low surface energy by engineering the silicon surface roughness and native oxide. As a result, the short-circuit current density (Jsc) of the device with the perovskite layer increases by 0.6mA/cm2 from 27.73 to 28.32 mA/cm2 and the open-circuit voltage (Voc) increases by 5mV from 517.36 to 512.50 mV, reaching a power conversion efficiency of 10.53%. The solar cell with the perovskite(MaPbI3) hole selective layer exhibits better performance than the reference counterpart. Future work will be focused on tuning the composition of the PbBr2 and PbI2 to modify the work function and enlarge the hole selectivity.
