Explorations of narrow-band green-emitting phosphors have attracted much attention due to their great application potentials in wide color-gamut wLEDs backlight display. Herein, a high-performance narrow-band green-emitting phosphor LaMg0.72Al11O19:0.28Mn2+ (LMAO:0.28Mn2+) was...
Motived by the growing demand for noncontact temperature sensing in cryogenic environments, the development of a high performance low temperature optical thermometry is more and more urgent. Herein, we demonstrate...
To quantitatively characterize the pyramidal texture of monocrystalline silicon cells and to optimize the parameters of the texturing process, the relative standard deviation Sh was proposed to quantitatively characterize the uniformity of the pyramidal texture. Referring to the definition and calculation of the standard deviation in mathematical statistics, Sh was defined as the standard deviation of the pyramid relative height hi after normalization of the pyramid height Hi of monocrystalline silicon wafer surfaces. Six different silicon cells, with different pyramidal textures, were obtained by applying different texturing times. The relationships between Sh and the photoelectric characteristics were analyzed. The feasibility of quantitatively characterizing the uniformity of the pyramidal texture using Sh was verified. By fitting the Sh curve, the feasibility of optimizing the texturing process parameters and predicting the photoelectric characteristics using Sh was verified. The experimental and analytical results indicate that, when the relative standard deviation Sh was smaller, the uniformity of the pyramidal texture obtained by texturing was better. The photoelectric conversion efficiency (PCE) of the silicon cells monotonically increased with decreasing Sh. The silicon cell obtained by texturing with 2% tetramethylammonium hydroxide (TMAH) solution for 18.1 min had a textured surface with a minimum of Sh, the reflectivity of the silicon cell reached its minimum value of 2.28%, and the PCE reached its maximum value of 19.76%.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
