High carrier lifetimes in UMG multicrystalline wafers after P- diffusion compatible with high-efficiency cell structures
Nerea Dasilva-Villanueva, Bülent Arıkan, Hasan Hüseyin Canar +7
High-quality multicrystalline Upgraded Metallurgical Grade Silicon (UMG-Si) offers significant advantages over conventional polysilicon-based PV technology, associated to lower cos…
UMG silicon for solar PV: from defects detection to PV module degradation
Eduardo Fornies, Carlos del Canizo, Laura Mendez +3
Upgraded metallurgical grade silicon (UMG-Si) for photovoltaic (PV) solar applications has been manufactured through the metallurgical route by means of the process developed by Fe…
Phosphorous Diffusion Gettering of Trapping Centers in Upgraded Metallurgical-Grade Solar Silicon
Sergio Catalán-Gómez, Nerea Dasilva-Villanueva, David Fuertes Marrón +1
Experimental evidence indicating the beneficial impact of a phosphorous diffusion gettering (PDG) in the reduction of trapping centers is shown, as observed by means of inductively…
Application of quasi-steady state photoconductance technique to lifetime measurements on c-Ge substrates
I. Martin, A. Alcaniz, A. Jimenez +3
Similar to other high quality crystalline absorbers, an accurate knowledge of surface passivation of crystalline Germanium (c-Ge) substrates is crucial for a straightforward improv…
How much physics is in a current-voltage curve? Inferring defect properties from photovoltaic device measurements
Rachel C. Kurchin, Jeremy R. Poindexter, Ville Vähänissi +3
Defect-assisted recombination processes are critical to understand, as they frequently limit photovoltaic (PV) device performance. However, the physical parameters governing these…
