High-Efficiency, Multijunction nc-Si:H-Based Solar Cells at High Deposition Rate

Recent Advances in Flexible Perovskite Solar Cells: Fabrication and Applications

“…Among these, photovoltaics that convert sunlight into electricity has attracted comprehensive attention because it is capable of providing sufficient amount of energy to satisfy all our power demands without causing any pollution to our environment for foreseeable future of humankind. Thus far, various types of solar cells have been developed, for example, polycrystalline silicon solar cells (mc‐Si cells), single‐crystalline silicon solar cells (c‐Si cells), thin film silicon solar cells, CdTe based solar cells, CIGS solar cells, GaAs based solar cells, CZTS, dye‐sensitized solar cells (DSSCs), quantum dot‐sensitized solar cells (QDSSCs), organic photovoltaics (OPVs), and perovskite solar cells (PSCs) . For solar cells, the most important figures‐of‐merit for commercialization are power on version efficiency (PCE) and cost.…”

p-Layer bandgap engineering for high efficiency thin film silicon solar cells

“…What's more, the nc-Si:H film is more optically clear than amorphous a-Si:H film. Therefore, nc-Si:H p-layer is commonly chosen to be used in silicon-based solar cells [20][21][22][23]. Liao et al prepared hydrogenated protocrystalline, nanocrystalline and microcrystalline silicon p-layers, which were characterized using Raman spectroscopy, high resolution TEM (HRTEM), optical transmittance and activation energy of dark-conductivity.…”

Flexible Perowskit‐Solarzellen: Herstellung und Anwendungen

“…Anders als fossile Brennstoffe verursacht Sonnenenergie keine Schäden an der Umwelt. B. polykristalline Silizium-Solarzellen (mc-Si-Zellen), [8] einkristalline Silizium-Solarzellen (c-Si-Zellen), [9][10][11] Dünnfilmsolarzellen, [12,13] CdTe-Solarzellen, [14,15] CIGS-Solarzellen, [16,17] GaAs-Solarzellen, [18] CZTS, [19][20][21] farbstoffsensibilisierte Solarzellen (DSSCs), [22] quantenpunktsensibilisierte Solarzellen (QDSSCs), [23] organische Photovoltaik (OPVs) [24] und Perowskit-Solarzellen (PSCs). [6,7] Insbesondere die Photovoltaik, die Sonnenlicht in Elektrizität umwandelt, hat enorme Aufmerksamkeit erfahren, weil sie das Potential hat, den weltweit steigenden Energiebedarf zu decken, ohne Schäden an der Umwelt zu verursachen.…”
