We report measurements of Cu2O interface stoichiometry and the effect of interface composition on heterojunction device performance. ZnO/Cu2O interface stoichiometry was varied by adjusting the ZnO window layer deposition conditions and stoichiometry was measured by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Current-voltage characteristics of ZnO/Cu2O heterojunctions indicate open circuit voltages of Voc ~ 530 mV for devices where the Cu2O layer is stoichiometric at the interface and Voc ~ 100 mV for devices where Cu2O is nonstoichiometric at the interface.","PeriodicalId":6350,"journal":{"name":"2013 IEEE 39th Photovoltaic Specialists Conference (PVSC)","volume":"5 1","pages":"2410-2413"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-06-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75458411","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}

Laminates containing EVA foils with a systematic variation of the additive formulation, i.e. the crosslinking agents, ultraviolet (UV) absorber, hindered amine light stabilizers and antioxidants, were subjected to UV aging. The influence of the additive combination on the photochemical aging of EVA was investigated by Raman spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and UV/visible spectroscopy. The amount of EVA discoloration was found to be strongly depending on the additive formation. An important impact of the antioxidant in terms of chromophore formation inhibition could be found. Surprisingly, the highly stabilized EVA foils showed higher discoloration rates as well as a more intense fluorescence background in the Raman spectra.","PeriodicalId":6350,"journal":{"name":"2013 IEEE 39th Photovoltaic Specialists Conference (PVSC)","volume":"22 1","pages":"1579-1584"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-06-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78252223","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}

The classical calculation assumes an abrupt onset of absorption at the band-edge, perfect absorption for all energies above the bandgap, and absence of non-radiative recombination. These assumptions are never satisfied for any practical solar cell. In this paper, we explain how the S-Q limits are redefined in the presence of the non-ideal optical effects, and we provide closed-form analytical expressions for the new limits for Jsc, Voc, and FF. Remarkably, these new limits can be achieved to a very high degree, even with significantly imperfect materials.","PeriodicalId":6350,"journal":{"name":"2013 IEEE 39th Photovoltaic Specialists Conference (PVSC)","volume":"165 1","pages":"1036-1040"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-06-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75128325","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}

Though the study indicated no or limited improvement for devices operating with a SiO2 like cover glass, in the absence of a cover the evaluation indicates that through a careful selection of the design these dielectric gratings can reduce reflection-loss related current losses by 2-3 fold by comparison to their planar double layer ARC counterparts. i.e. for a 3J metamorphic device this lead to a current improvement of 0.7 mA/cm2 for a 60 degree acceptance angles.","PeriodicalId":6350,"journal":{"name":"2013 IEEE 39th Photovoltaic Specialists Conference (PVSC)","volume":"12 1","pages":"3049-3052"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-06-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75260869","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}

Although various methods have been explored to determine outdoor concentrating photovoltaic (CPV) cell temperature, no method has proven to work across all module technologies and result in desirable uncertainties. Menard (2012) has recently published results claiming accurate measurements of cell temperature using the wavelength shift of light emitted from the sub-cells of a Semprius CPV module. This work focuses on efforts to verify Menard's results using additional CPV technologies that are on-sun at NREL. Baseline electro-luminescence emission is recorded for modules under a low level forward bias and under isothermal conditions using thermal chambers. The same modules or sister modules are then placed on NREL's high accuracy two-axis tracker for outdoor measurements. Photo-luminescence emission peaks are measured for multiple modules at stable wind and irradiance conditions. Emission results from the sub-cells are compared to what is documented in the literature for the given semiconductor material. The signal to background ratio is analyzed and the possible broad applicability of this procedure is discussed.","PeriodicalId":6350,"journal":{"name":"2013 IEEE 39th Photovoltaic Specialists Conference (PVSC)","volume":"52 1","pages":"3426-3430"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-06-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"72902051","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}

Therefore, efficiency and cost are vitally important in the design, and operation of the PV system. Magnetic components are the bulkiest component and highly affect the efficiency of the galvanically isolated PV inverter and design of such component generally involves a compromise between the reduction of core loss at the expense of increased winding loss or vice versa. The loss characteristics of the magnetic material itself present a fundamental limitation on core loss reduction, implying that the intrinsic reduction of core loss density depends on magnetic material improvements. Hence, the essential tradeoff between cost, performance and physical size must be done by designers to make the most optimal inductor for their design. A high frequency magnetic powder core inductor used in galvanically isolated PV inverter is analyzed with commercially available finite element analysis software, Maxwell - Ansoft. Results obtained from simulation studies are compared with built prototype show good agreement.","PeriodicalId":6350,"journal":{"name":"2013 IEEE 39th Photovoltaic Specialists Conference (PVSC)","volume":"13 1","pages":"2845-2848"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-06-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73121413","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}
