Nano-Structured Solar Cells

چکیده
2.0 The resources at Arkansas are more than adequate. The team is very capable and can realize the stated goals. The results have shown that there is a chemical interaction between carbon nanotubes and P3HT. Solar panels based on carbon nanotube/P3HT organic materials were disappointingly low. Goals have been set to increase the efficiency. Some very preliminary results based on Si were given but their value/reproducibility was not clear.

متن کاملNano-structured CuO-Cu2O Complex Thin Film for Application in CH3NH3PbI3 Perovskite Solar Cells
Nano-structured CuO-Cu2O complex thin film-based perovskite solar cells were fabricated on an indium tin oxide (ITO)-coated glass and studied. Copper (Cu) thin films with a purity of 99.995 % were deposited on an ITO-coated glass by magnetron reactive sputtering. To optimize the properties of the nano-structured CuO-Cu2O complex thin films, the deposited Cu thin films were thermally oxidized at...
متن کاملEnhanced optical absorption in organic solar cells using metal nano particles
In this study, for increasing absorption of the active layer in bulk hetero junction (BHJ) organic solar cells (OSCs) we used surface Plasmon effects of metal nano particles (MNPs). We embedded the MNPs inside the active layer and studied the device structure. For shown the results we investigated the model of our structure with Finite Difference Time Domain (FDTD) numerical method and achieved...
