1. 11. Nanostructured ZnO electrodes for solar cell applications

   Författare :Karin Keis; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Physics; Zinc oxide; nanostructured; mesoporous; photoelectrochemistry; solar cells; Fysik; Physics; Fysik; Physical Chemistry; fysikalisk kemi;

   Sammanfattning : In this thesis the possibilities of using nanostructured dye-sensitized ZnO electrodes for solar energy conversion in photoelectrochemical solar cells are investigated. In order to characterize the photoelectrochemical properties of unsensitized ZnO films, measurements were performed using a short laser pulse (laser flash induced current transients) and under continuous illumination (steady-state).

4. 13. Emerging Energy Possibilities

   Författare :Joanna Wiberg; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; electron transfer; dye-sensitized solar cells; D-B-A; femtosecond transient absorption;

   Sammanfattning : This Thesis presents a thorough study of the electron transfer (ET) processes, both inter-molecular - between dyes for dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs), and intra-molecular - in porphyrin based electron donor-bridge-electron acceptor model systems. The focus has been on charge separation and subsequent re-combination in the femtosecond-nanosecond range in both systems. LÄS MER

5. 14. On Generation and Recombination in Cu(In,Ga)Se2 Thin-Film Solar Cells

   Författare :Jonas Malmström; Lars Stolt; Uwe Rau; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Electronics; solar energy conversion; solar cells; Cu In; Ga Se2; device modelling; optical properties; electron-hole generation; light trapping; electron-hole recombination; Elektronik; Electronics; Elektronik;

   Sammanfattning : The solar cell technology based on Cu(In,Ga)Se2 (CIGS) thin-films provides a promising route to cost competitive solar electricity. The standard device structure is ZnO:Al/ZnO/CdS/CIGS/Mo films on a glass substrate, where the first three layers are n-type semiconductors with wide bandgaps, forming a pn-junction with the p-type CIGS absorber layer; the Mo layer serves as a back contact.
