Metal films can provide this support, but accomplishing this can be challenging. Here we describe a method for fabricating thin III-V solar cells on Ni films, using electroless deposition to deposit a thick (10-50 µm) Ni film onto the bottom of an inverted III-V solar cell prior to substrate removal. Cells have been fabricated on both rigid and flexible supports with no loss of performance when compared to cells processed using standard inverted-cell processing.","PeriodicalId":6749,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE 46th Photovoltaic Specialists Conference (PVSC)","volume":"4 1","pages":"3224-3226"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74168760","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}

Recent work has shown that the fracture strength of silicon solar cells can reduce after exposure to temperatures below -20°C. In an effort to better evaluate modules with respect to cell crack durability, we explore the use of a single thermal cycle prior to mechanical loading. Modules were exposed to a static front-side load before and after exposure to a single thermal cycle and were characterized with current-voltage measurements and electroluminescence imaging. The results show a significant increase in the number of cell cracks that are generated at a given load after a single cold exposure. We explore how this can be used to further optimize the qualification test sequence for mechanical durability.","PeriodicalId":6749,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE 46th Photovoltaic Specialists Conference (PVSC)","volume":"2 1","pages":"1521-1524"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74168877","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}

However, the poly-Si films are not transparent to all wavelengths of the solar spectrum. There is often some parasitic absorption in these films. From a different standpoint, as they absorb some light, they can luminesce. This phenomenon provides us with unique opportunities to investigate optoelectronic properties of the films in a fast, contactless, and nondestructive manner. In this work, we report the luminescence phenomenon from poly-Si films used in passivating-contact solar cells. We then utilize this phenomenon to report a range of applications for solar cells including studies of carrier transport behaviors and hydrogenation inside the films.","PeriodicalId":6749,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE 46th Photovoltaic Specialists Conference (PVSC)","volume":"85 1","pages":"2325-2328"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74192847","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 Nominal Operating Cell Temperature (NOCT) of modules with thermally conductive backsheet is lower than TPT with a temperature difference as high as 2 °C. All TCBs have higher thermal conductivity values as compared to TPT. TCBs can perform better, worse or equal compared to TPT depending on the dynamic site conditions.

We doped these cells with varying amounts and types of alkali atoms and submitted them to accelerated lifetime testing.

Subsequent changes in photovoltaic characteristic properties of the solar cells are extracted, reported and explained. Under positive gate voltages, the open-circuit voltage and short-circuit current density measured at collector are significantly increased due to the drift of holes from gate junction to the collector (forward bias condition of gate junction). However, there is slight increase in open-circuit voltage under reverse gate voltages, where only thermally generated electrons drift toward the collector junction. Moreover, negative gate voltage on insulated gate contact has resulted into slight increase in open-circuit voltage and short-circuit current compared to zero gate voltage. These results demonstrate the potential to change and control the performance characteristics of Schottky junction solar cells by using gated layers.","PeriodicalId":6749,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE 46th Photovoltaic Specialists Conference (PVSC)","volume":"45 1","pages":"1743-1747"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75060817","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}

By growing RTWCG SiOX layers on one side of silicon substrates, the hydrophilic nature of the SiOX layer made it possible for the crystallization of boric acid, onto the silicon substrate, from an aqueous solution comprised of boric acid dissolved in dilute hydrofluoric acid solution. The crystallized boric acid layer was used as a p+ dopant source for a p+/n+ structure. A sheet resistance of 70 ohm/sq was achieved in three minutes at 1050°C, ambient air. Since the boron diffusant can be created in an inline chemical bench, this new approach will improve the efficiency of traditional solar cells in a cost effective and, very importantly, process efficient way. This method can lower the cost of producing bifacial cells, rear local-diffused (PERL) cells, front surface field-interdigitated back contact (FSF-IBC) solar cells, and other cell structures which depend on boron diffusion to create a p+ or p++ emitter layer.","PeriodicalId":6749,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE 46th Photovoltaic Specialists Conference (PVSC)","volume":"52 1","pages":"0308-0310"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77579579","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}
