Epitaxially grown quantum well and quantum dot solar cells suffer from weak light absorption, strongly limiting their performance. Light trapping based on optical resonances is particularly relevant for such devices to increase light absorption and thereby current generation. Compared to homogeneous media, the position of the quantum layers within the device is an additional parameter that can strongly influence resonant absorption. However, this effect has so far received little attention from the photovoltaic community. We develop a theoretical framework to evaluate and optimize resonant light absorption in a thin slab with multiple quantum layers. Using numerical simulations, we show that the position of the layers can make the difference between strong absorption enhancement and completely suppressed absorption, and that an optimal position leads to a resonant absorption enhancement two times larger than average. We confirm these results experimentally by measuring the absorption enhancement from photoluminescence spectra in InAs/GaAs quantum dot samples. Overall, this work provides an additional degree of freedom to substantially improve absorption, encouraging the development of quantum wells and quantum dots-based devices such as intermediate-band solar cells.","PeriodicalId":16781,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Photonics for Energy","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2021-07-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43372686","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The gallium content-dependent theoretical limit of the efficiencies of Cu ( In , Ga ) Se2 solar cells were studied using a MATLAB model developed based on the Shockley–Queisser detailed balance. The developed model included the temperature dependence of the bandgap according to the gallium content. The original Shockley–Queisser detailed-balance and the developed model at the ASTM G173-03 AM1.5G solar irradiance were used to calculate the gallium content and solar cell temperature-dependent theoretical efficiency limits of a Cu ( In1 − xGax ) Se2-based solar cell. Due to the spectral distribution of the solar irradiance, there were two “peaks” of efficiency: one at values of x around 0.2 prevails at lower temperatures and the other at values of x around 0.6 higher at temperatures above 0°C. Consequently, there is a “pit” with a minimum at x of around 0.5. Values of x corresponding to these values are higher for the temperature-dependent bandgap model. The calculated relative difference between the ultimate efficiency limit and the theoretical efficiency at x = 0.3 at 310 K is <1 % .","PeriodicalId":16781,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Photonics for Energy","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2021-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45787805","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The pattern of the front electrode and the solar cell size has a significant influence on the performance of solar cells. In order to improve the conversion efficiency of solar cells, we present a combined finite-element-genetic algorithm (GA) method for designing the front electrode and solar cell size. In the proposed method, a solar cell is considered to consist of many small unit cells, and these unit cells can well describe the current density and voltage distribution of the solar cell. In the GA, each individual represents a solar cell with a particular size and operates at a particular voltage. The validity of the proposed method is tested on the front electrode and solar cell size design problem of the side-contact and gridded cells. Two existing optimization methods are also used to optimize the front electrode and solar cell size of the two kinds of solar cells. Based on solar cells of different sizes, different optimization results are obtained using either of the two existing optimization methods. The unique optimization result can be obtained using the proposed method, and the optimization result is better than that obtained using the two existing optimization methods.","PeriodicalId":16781,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Photonics for Energy","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2021-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48825450","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The optical absorption and heat transfer properties of fluid can be improved by suspending nanoparticles in a base fluid. Due to the strong photothermal effect around nanoparticles, water around the particles evaporates when exposed to light. Therefore, nanofluids can be used as the working fluid of solar evaporation devices. The evaporation heat transfer model of the Ag nanofluid is established. The temperature distribution and vapor concentration distribution around nanofluids are simulated at low concentrated solar power. Effects of the particle size and volume concentration on the evaporation performance are analyzed. When the volume concentration is small (fv = 0.01 % ), the effect of particle size on evaporation is obvious, and the evaporation increases with the increase of particle size. When the particle radius R increases from 5 to 40 nm, the evaporation amount increases 17.8% from 0.0286 to 0.0337 g. For the nanofluids with smaller particle sizes (R < 20 nm), the evaporation tends to be stable with the increase of concentration, reaching about 0.0318 g. For the nanofluids with larger particle sizes (R = 40 nm), the evaporation decreases significantly with the increased concentration. When the volume concentration increases from 0.01% to 0.1%, the evaporation decreases from 0.0337 to 0.0288 g. Therefore, the particle size and volume concentration should be considered comprehensively when choosing nanofluids as evaporation working fluids. When the volume concentration is >0.05 % , the nanofluids with smaller particle sizes should be selected. We provide guidance for the utilization of nanofluids for solar evaporation.","PeriodicalId":16781,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Photonics for Energy","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2021-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44560333","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
