  1. 6. ALD Buffer Layer Growth and Interface Formation on Cu(In,Ga)Se2 Solar Cell Absorbers

    Författare :Jan Sterner; Lars Stolt; Roland Scheer; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Electronics; thin film; Cu In; Ga Se2; CIGS; chalcopyrite; ALD; sulfurization; buffer layer; XPS; UPS; electron spectroscopy; band alignment; atomic layer deposition; Elektronik; Electronics; Elektronik;

    Sammanfattning : Cu(In,Ga)Se2 (CIGS) thin film solar cells contain a thin layer of CdS. To avoid toxic heavy-metal-containing waste in the module production the development of a cadmium-free buffer layer is desirable. This thesis considers alternative Cd-free buffer materials deposited by Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD). LÄS MER

  3. 7. Modelling Band Gap Gradients and Cd-free Buffer Layers in Cu(In,Ga)Se2 Solar Cells

    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; CIGS; Thin film solar cells; Electrical modelling; Alternative buffer layers; Gallium gradients; Simulations; Electrical characterization; Metastabilities; Light-soaking; Hall measurements; Persistent photoconductivity; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot elektronik; Engineering Science with specialization in Electronics;

    Sammanfattning : A deeper understanding of Cu(In,Ga)Se2 (CIGS) solar cells is important for the further improvement of these devices. This thesis is focused on the use of electrical modelling as a tool for pursuing this aim. Finished devices and individual layers are characterized and the acquired data are used as input in the simulations. LÄS MER

  4. 8. In the confines of Cu(In,Ga)Se2 thin film solar cells with rear surface passivating oxide layers

    Författare :Dorothea Ledinek; Marika Edoff; Charlotte Platzer Björkman; Jan Keller; Christian Kaufmann; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Alkali; Alumina; Back contact; CIGS; CIGSe; Hafnia; Passivation; Rear contact; Sodium fluoride; Ultra-thin; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot elektronik; Engineering Science with specialization in Electronics;

    Sammanfattning : The material supply to build renewable energy conversion systems needs to be considered from both a cost and an energy security perspective. For Cu(In,Ga)Se2 (CIGS) thin film solar cells the use of indium in the absorber layer is most problematic. LÄS MER

  5. 9. Design and Stability of Cu(In,Ga)Se2-Based Solar Cell Modules

    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Electronics; Thin film solar cells; CIGS; Cu In; Ga Se2; stability; lifetime; testing; Elektronik; Electronics; Elektronik; Elektronik; Electronics;

    Sammanfattning : Cu(In,Ga)Se2 (CIGS) is one of the most promising semiconductor compounds for large-scale production of efficient, low-cost thin film solar cells, and several research institutes have announced their plans for CIGS production lines. But for the CIGS technology to become a commercial success, a number of issues concerning manufacturability, product definition, and long-term stability require further attention. LÄS MER

  7. 10. From Light to Dark : Electrical Phenomena in Cu(In,Ga)Se2 Solar Cells

    Författare :Piotr Szaniawski; Marika Edoff; Uwe Zimmermann; Jörgen Olsson; Thomas Walter; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Solar cells; Photovoltaics; Cu InGa Se2; CIGS; Electrical characterization; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot elektronik; Engineering Science with specialization in Electronics;

    Sammanfattning : In Cu(In,Ga)Se2 (CIGS) solar cells the CIGS layer serves as the light absorber, growing naturally p-type. Together with an n-type buffer layer they form a p-n heterojunction. Typically, CdS is used as a buffer, although other, less toxic materials are investigated as alternatives. LÄS MER
