Without increasing the wafer strength, this leads to a high fracture rate during subsequent handling and processing steps. The most critical processing step during the manufacture of screen-printed solar cells is the firing of metallic contacts. In this work we evaluate the development of mechanical stresses in metallic contacts (Al, Ag and Al/Ag bus bars) with respect to different processing steps. For this purpose we combine X-ray diffraction (XRD) stress measurements, cell bowing measured with a laser scanning device and in-situ bending tests. It was found that the Al back contact layer represents a very porous/loose microstructure, which does not affect the mechanical stability of the solar cell. It was also found that the thickness and uniformity of the eutectic layer are the most important factors influencing the bowing of a complete solar cell. Furthermore, residual stresses and stresses developing during cell bending in Ag, Al/Ag bus are measured and discussed in detail in this work.","PeriodicalId":373149,"journal":{"name":"2011 37th IEEE Photovoltaic Specialists Conference","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-06-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133871123","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

High efficiency photovoltaic designs, such as the PERL and PERC, use too many high temperature processes, expensive materials and complex manufacturing methods to be commercially viable. Work has been done to replicate the PERC cell structure using commercially viable methods, namely inkjet printing and metal plating. Inkjet printing has necessitated the use of plating as a self-aligning metallization method, and this plating has revealed some areas for concern: 1.) Ni plating on the rear point contacts; 2.) Poor adhesion between Ni and Si for the front finger contacts; and 3.) Non-uniform NiSi formation. Methods for mitigating these issues include different plating methods, improved surface preparation, and altered sintering conditions. Test structures and models validating these proposals are presented.","PeriodicalId":373149,"journal":{"name":"2011 37th IEEE Photovoltaic Specialists Conference","volume":"271 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-06-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134036161","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For the application of silicon-based thin film solar cells to concentrator photovoltaics, it is required to be revealed the light intensity dependence of the performance of silicon-based thin film solar cells. From these reasons, in this study both calculation and experimental studies were conducted with several types of single-junction and multi-junction tandem solar cells. From both simulation and measurement results, we observed that double- and triple-junction solar cells achieve high open-circuit voltage and large logarithmic increment in open-circuit voltage with increasing light intensities. On the other hand, it became clear that the drop of fill factor is required to be improved for the realization of the multi-junction silicon-based thin-film solar cells with very high efficiency under low concentration ratios of sunlight.","PeriodicalId":373149,"journal":{"name":"2011 37th IEEE Photovoltaic Specialists Conference","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-06-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131511661","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study considers a battery as load and considers its state of charge and take into consideration that empty battery need more current than a fully charged one and therefore the MPPT is not useful in this case, but a smart system able to manage the battery current based on different irradiance levels. For a fixed voltage output of the DC/DC converter, the current risks to reach its maximum when the battery is totally empty which is caused by the big difference of potential between the converter and the battery voltages. Whereas in a fully charged battery, the difference of potential between the charger and the battery is zero and therefore no need to search for the MPP in this case. The study treats first the modeling of an open loop DC/DC buck converter and then a modeling of the converter in a closed loop with a PID controller. Also, it proposes the use of a microcontroller with three different circuit designs and algorithms to manage the current and the voltage together depending on the battery state of charge. The final design is called a PV based battery floating charger that increase the lifetime of the battery by controlling the converter output voltage with respect to the consumed current, the available PV current and the converter Mosfet tolerated current.","PeriodicalId":373149,"journal":{"name":"2011 37th IEEE Photovoltaic Specialists Conference","volume":"47 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-06-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127584987","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This method allows a schematic interpretation of the internal processes of efficiency enhancement techniques.

This sol-gel-derived SiO2 layer is not very thin and the deviation in the thickness of the sol-gel layer is not slight. In general, the characteristics of MOS solar cells are significantly affected by the thickness of the SiO2 layer. Particularly, the thermal grown oxide thickness required is less than 2nm for MOS solar cell applications. It is useful for large-scale and large-amount manufacturing that the influence of nonuniformity of oxide thickness on the characteristics of MOS solar cells with sol-gel oxides is reduced.
