Cu2ZnSnS4 Thin Film Solar Cells: Present Status and Future Prospects
Pollution of the earth and shortage of energy sources have been the bottle-neck of survival and development for human beings since the start of the 21st century. Therefore, lowering energy consumption and protecting the environment have gradually gained attention from countries all over the world. In order to keep sustainable development, governments, re‐ search institutes, and industries have ...
متن کاملTowards high efficiency thin film solar cells
As an alternative to single crystal silicon photovoltaics, thin film solar cells have been extensively explored for miniaturized cost-effective photovoltaic systems. Though the fight to gain efficiency has been severely engaged over the years, the battle is not yet over. In this review, we comb the fields to elucidate the strategies towards high efficiency thin films solar cells and provide poi...
متن کاملFlexcellence : towards Roll-to-roll Mass-production of Low Cost Thin Film Silicon Solar Cells
We report on the “mid-term” results obtained in the frame of the European FLEXCELLENCE project (www.unine.ch/flex). FLEXCELLENCE aims at developing the equipment and the processes for cost-effective roll-to-roll production of high-efficiency thin-film modules, based on amorphous (a-Si:H) and microcrystalline silicon (μc-Si:H). Eight partners, with extended experience in complementary fields ran...
متن کاملThin-film Silicon Solar Cells
The simplest semiconductor junction that is used in solar cells for separating photogenerated charge carriers is the p-n junction, an interface between the p-type region and ntype region of one semiconductor. Therefore, the basic semiconductor property of a material, the possibility to vary its conductivity by doping, has to be demonstrated first before the material can be considered as a suita...
متن کاملGCEP award #40654: High-Efficiency, Low-Cost Thin Film Solar Cells
Several key advances were accomplished within this project in the last year. These advances are subdivided in materials development, device development and modeling and simulation. Highly doped ZnO nanowires were synthesized and characterized. The goal is to use them as a solution-processable alternative to ITO for transparent electrodes. Appropriate characterization techniques for these nanoma...
