Stacks of hydrogen-lean aluminum oxide, deposited via plasma-assisted atomic-layer-deposition, and hydrogen-rich plasma-enhanced chemical vapor-deposited silicon nitride (SiNx) are applied to boron-doped float-zone silicon ...

In this study, we demonstrate the high surface passivation quality of PEDOT:PSS/c-Si junctions for the first time on solar cell level, reaching a record high Voc value of 688 mV after full-area metallization of the PEDOT:PSS. ...

We report on a kerfless exfoliation approach to further reduce the costs of crystalline silicon photovoltaics making use of evaporated Al as a double functional layer. The Al serves as the stress inducing element to drive ...

We investigate the optical properties of n- and p-type polycrystalline silicon (poly-Si) layers. We determine the optical constants n and k of the complex refractive index of polycrystalline silicon by using variable-angle ...

Kerfless wafering techniques have the potential to reduce the cost of crystalline silicon (Si) in photovoltaics by saving material and production costs. Thermomechanical spallation from thick wafers with aluminium (Al) in ...

We present data of the coefficient of band-to-band absorption of crystalline silicon at 295 K in the wavelength range from 950 to 1350 nm and analyze its uncertainty. The data is obtained from measurements of reflectance ...
