DESIGN, FABRICATION AND CHARACTERISATION OF THIN-FILM MATERIALS. FOR HETEROJUNCTION SILICON WAFER SOLAR CELLS

      Аннотация: Solar cell technology progress has been rapid over the recent decades, and high cell efficiency approaches like heterojunction (HJT) silicon wafer solar cells are leading the trend to achieve both the cell efficiency and cost effectiveness targets towards the PV technology roadmap. This book provides insights into the pros and cons of HJT silicon wafer solar cell technology, followed by detailed experimental and simulation studies to propose novel ways to address the limitations. Three key research areas were investigated to address the most pertinent issues : parasitic absorption losses, electrical resistance losses, and recombination losses. The readers will benefit from the easy to understand methodologies and findings in this book for both industry and academic institutions alike.
