GCEP 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...
متن کاملNext Generation High-Efficiency Low-cost Thin Film Photovoltaics
Our goal is to develop novel growth approaches for producing low cost solar cells that have efficiency comparable to those made from high-cost, single-crystalline materials. Our efforts to date focus on using ion beam assisted deposition (IBAD) to control the grain boundary alignment in polycrystalline silicon thin films. The boundaries between highly aligned grains have smaller defect densitie...

متن کاملOptimization of Annealing Process for Totally Printable High-current Superstrate CuInS2 Thin-Film Solar Cells
Planar superstrate CuInS2 (CIS) solar cell devices are fabricated using totally solution-processed deposition methods. A titanium dioxide blocking layer and an In2S3 buffer layer are deposited by the spray pyrolysis method. A CIS2 absorber layer is deposited by the spin coating method using CIS ink prepared by a 1-butylamine solvent-based solution at room temperature. To obtain optimum annealin...
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...
