Polyacetylene thin film photovoltaic devices
2014 Photovoltaic devices have been obtained by a direct polymerization of undoped (or p-type doped) thin film (CH)x layer onto a polycrystalline cadmium sulfide film. The morphology of the contact is observed by S.E.M. microscopy. The electrical characteristics of this device are studied in the dark or under illumination. The main result, at AM1, 100 mW/cm2 with doped (CH)x correspond to 0.5 p...
متن کاملDesign and fabrication of photonic crystal thin film photovoltaic cells
We present the integration of an absorbing planar photonic crystal within a thin film photovoltaic cell. The devices are based on a stack including a hydrogenated amorphous silicon P-i-N junction surrounded by TCO layers, with a back metallic contact. Optical simulations exhibit a significant increase of the integrated absorption in the 300-720nm wavelength range. The global electro-optical cha...
متن کاملThin-film Photovoltaic Proton and Electron Radiation
A radiation test plan for thin-film photovoltaic technologies focused on a MEO flight experiment is outlined. The proton and electron radiation response of thin film, amorphous Si solar cells and CuInGaSe2 solar cells, with and without space coatings, is presented. The degradation of the photovoltaic output under penetrating and junction-damaging proton irradiation, and 0.6 MeV and 1 MeV electr...
متن کاملGrain boundaries in CdTe thin film solar cells: a review
The current state of knowledge on the impact of grain boundaries in CdTe solar cells is reviewed with emphasis being placed on working cell structures. The role of the chemical composition of grain boundaries as well as growth processes are discussed, along with characterisation techniques such as electron beam induced current and cathodoluminescence, which are capable of extracting information...
متن کاملCritical State in Nb Thin Film
We present high resolution measurements of temperature dependence of low frequency ac magnetic susceptibility of superconducting Nb thin film in perpendicular time-varying periodic applied magnetic fields. We map this data, including harmonics, to the ac susceptibility calculated on basis of the complete analytical model of magnetization of thin superconducting disk in critical state. We find a...
