Numerical modeling of intra-band tunneling for heterojunction solar cells in SCAPS
For heterojunction solar cells with a spike in one of the bands at the junction, intra-band tunneling will enhance the current through the interface. We have incorporated this phenomenon in SCAPS, a publicly available one-dimensional solar cell device simulator. The thermionic-field emission boundary conditions at the interfaces are formulated based on the WKB approximation and we discuss the c...
متن کاملBand offsets of InGaP/GaAs heterojunctions by scanning tunneling spectroscopy
Scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy are used to study InGaP/GaAs heterojunctions with InGaAs-like interfaces. Band offsets are probed using conductance spectra, with tip-induced band bending accounted for using 3-dimensional electrostatic potential simulations together with a planar computation of the tunnel current. Curve fitting of theory to experiment is performed. Using an InGaP ...
متن کاملScanning Tunneling Spectroscopy of C36
The local density of electronic states NsEd has been measured on C36 thin films using scanning tunneling spectroscopy (STS). A 0.8 eV energy gap and sharp features in NsEd with widths as small as 0.2 eV can be ascribed to the discrete molecular energy levels predicted for the C36 molecule, broadened by intermolecular interactions. However, a more complete agreement between the experimental resu...
متن کاملDefect Spectroscopy on CIGSSe-Based Heterojunction Solar Cells
The changes of defect characteristics induced by accelerated lifetime tests on solar cells of the heterostructure ZnO/CdS/Cu(In,Ga)(S,Se)2/Mo are investigated. Encapsulated modules were shown to be stable against water vapor and oxygen under outdoor conditions, whereas the fill factor and open-circuit voltage of non-encapsulated test cells are reduced after prolonged damp-heat treatment in the ...
متن کاملElectron tunneling through a monolayer of small metal clusters investigated by scanning tunneling spectroscopy
We have investigated the current-voltage characteristic of monolayers of seperated metal clusters of a size of 1.4 nm with a low-temperature ultrahigh vacuum scanning tunneling microscope. Apart from the usual charge-quantization phenomena, such as Coulomb blockade and staircase, negative differential resistance was observed by performing measurements at distinct locations on the cluster layers...
