Effects of temperature on electrical parameters of polysilicon solar cells, fabricated using the phosphorous spin-on diffusion technique, have been studied. The current density–voltagecharacteristics of polycrystalline silicon solar cells were measured in dark at different temperaturelevels. For this purpose, a diode equivalent model was used to obtain saturation current densi...

a new output structure for class e power amplifier (pa) is proposed in this paper. a series lc resonator circuit, tuned near the second harmonic of the operating frequency is added to the output circuit. this resonator causes low impedance at the second harmonic. the output circuit is designed to shape the switch voltage of the class e amplifier and lower the voltage stress of the transistor. t...

An 18 μm thin crystalline silicon solar cell was demonstrated, and its best open circuit voltage is 642.3 mV. However, this value is far from the cell’s theoretical upper limit in an ideal case. This paper explores the open circuit voltage losses of the thin silicon solar cell, starting from the ideal case, through first principle calculation and experiments. The open circuit voltage losses com...

cuins2 nanostructures were  synthesized  via  a  simple  surfactant-free solvothermal  route.  in  this  synthesis,  thiosemicarbazide  and thioglycolic acid were used as sulfur sources. the effects of different parameters such as type of precursor and time on the morphology and particle  size  of  the  samples  have  been  investigated.  the nanostructures  were  characterized  by  means  of  ...

The solar photovoltaic (PV) systems are facing serious problems due to unavoidable losses in their system, leads to more devation of output power from the input power level. This effect is known as a mismatch effect and is available in PV systems. Many losses are encountered in PV system and it is difficult to minimize such losses. In this paper, the influence of thermal effect on the solar PV ...

two organic compounds (sc-23=(e)-2-cyano-3-(2,3-dimethoxyphenyl) acrylic acid and sc-25=(e)-2-cyano-3-(2,5-dimethoxyphenyl) acrylic acid) involving methoxy groups as the electron donor and cyanoacrylic acid group as the electron acceptor have been investigated for dye sensitized solar cells. they shows a short-circuit current density (jsc) of 2.08 and 1.81 ma cm-2, an open circuit voltage (voc)...

a  commercial  ti-nanoxide  was  deposited  on  in-doped  sno2 (ito) polymer  substrates by  tape casting  technique with different thicknesses  (7,  14  and  36μm)  to  be  used  as  photoelectrode  in flexible  dye-sensitized  solar  cells  (dsscs).  ruthenium  dye  was adsorbed on each tio2 film for 24 h. the resulting photoelectrodes were used to form flexible dsscs in combination with elec...
