Amorphous silicon solar cells deposited with non-constant silane concentration

Solar cells for self-sustainable intelligent packaging

“…The simplicity of the setup and its non-interference with plasma makes OES a useful tool that can provide valuable information about the lm forming precursors and radicals present in the plasma. [29][30][31][32] Table 1 presents the intensity peaks ratio of the plasma during the deposition of intrinsic thin lm on LPC and Al coated glass. Since the interpretation of the measured spectra relies on the relative properties of the plasma, the conclusions are drawn from the ratios of two measured intensity emission lines (or peaks), I x /I y , where "I" refers to the optical emission intensity between the upper and the lower states of transition and "x" and "y" are the corresponding atoms or molecules (more information can be found in ESI Fig.…”

Flexible-textured polydimethylsiloxane antireflection structure for enhancing omnidirectional photovoltaic performance of Cu(In,Ga)Se_2 solar cells

“…Solar cells can be roughly divided into bulk-and thin-film devices, based on their structures. The thin-film materials include CdTe, amorphous silicon, and Cu(In,Ga)Se 2 (CIGS) [1,2]. Among all thin-film solar cells, CIGS and related materials possess great potential because of a high optical absorption, adjustable band-gap, and stable photo-degradation [3,4].…”

Enhanced broadband and omnidirectional performance of Cu(In,Ga)Se2 solar cells with ZnO functional nanotree arrays

“…The thin-lm materials include Cu(In,Ga)Se 2 (CIGS), amorphous silicon, and CdTe. 8,9 Among these solar materials, CIGS has the greatest potential as the next generation of photovoltaic devices because CIGS solar cells have signicant potential as a source of low-cost, high-efficiency solar electricity with the production efficiency greater than 20.3%. [10][11][12] Investigating the AR layers with subwavelength structures is an accurate technique for improving the conversion efficiency.…”
