Synthesis and characterization of self-assembled, high aspect ratio nm-scale columnar silicon structures
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2013-06)
The aim of this work is to synthesize nm-scale columnar structures in Si principally for solar cell applications. These structures are also desirable as templates for heteroepitaxial growth of SixGe1-x. A nanostructured ...
An investigation of crystalline thin-film Six/Ge 1-x/Si solar cells
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2013-06)
Thin film solar cells have attracted a lot of attention due to their potential for increased efficiency and reduction in cost of material. Thin-film crystalline silicon solar cells are fundamentally limited in efficiency ...
Investigation of XeF2 dry etching for contact isolation of screen printed IBC solar cell
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2013-06)
We demonstrated the use of Xenon Difluoride (XeF2) plasma less vapor etching for isolation of n and p regions in screen-printed interdigitated back contact (IBC) solar cell. The fabrication process is free from lithography ...
Numerical analysis of bifacial solar cell using PC1D software
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2013-06)
Computer-based simulations play a critical role in the design, development, and functionality of solar cells. Device modeling techniques substantially reduce the time and costs through optimization of process steps, choice ...
