Manufacturable Nanostructured Solar Cells with Efficient Light Trapping and Charge Carrier Collection Investigators
Photovoltaics, which utilizes the largest possible energy source to generate electricity, represents one of the most attractive approaches towards renewable energy future. However, the cost of current solar electricity is still too high. Future photovoltaic technologies need to have high power conversion efficiency and can be fabricated with low cost. In this project, we propose novel nanocone ...
متن کاملCharge carrier loss mechanisms in CuInS2/ZnO nanocrystal solar cells.
Heterojunction solar cells based on colloidal nanocrystals (NCs) have shown remarkable improvements in performance in the last decade, but this progress is limited to merely two materials, PbS and PbSe. However, solar cells based on other material systems such as copper-based compounds show lower power conversion efficiencies and much less effort has been made to develop a better understanding ...
متن کاملCharge Carrier Recombination in Bulk Heterojunction Organic Solar Cells
Photovoltaic phenomenon was first observed by E. Becquerel (Becquerel) in 1839. He observed the electric current-lit silver electrode, immersed in the electrolyte. In 1894, taking advantage of the observed photoconductivity phenomenon in amorphous selenium the semiconductor solar cell was developed. The very first silicon p-n junction solar cell was made in 1954, energy conversion efficiency of...
متن کاملExciton harvesting, charge transfer, and charge-carrier transport in amorphous-silicon nanopillar/polymer hybrid solar cells
We report on the device physics of nanostructured amorphous-silicon a-Si:H /polymer hybrid solar cells. Using two different polymers, poly 3-hexylthiophene P3HT and poly 2-methoxy-52 -ethyl-hexyloxy -1,4-phenylenevinylene MEH-PPV , we study the exciton diffusion, charge transfer, and charge-carrier transport in bilayer and nanostructured a-Si:H/polymer systems. We find that strong energy transf...
متن کاملClassification of solar cells according to mechanisms of charge separation and charge collection.
In the last decade, photovoltaics (PV) has experienced an important transformation. Traditional solar cells formed by compact semiconductor layers have been joined by new kinds of cells that are constituted by a complex mixture of organic, inorganic and solid or liquid electrolyte materials, and rely on charge separation at the nanoscale. Recently, metal organic halide perovskites have appeared...
