Bridging the gap between photovoltaics R&D and manufacturing with data-driven optimization
Felipe Oviedo, Zekun Ren, Xue Hansong +12
Novel photovoltaics, such as perovskites and perovskite-inspired materials, have shown great promise due to high efficiency and potentially low manufacturing cost. So far, solar ce…
Self-powered sensors enabled by wide-bandgap perovskite indoor photovoltaic cells
Ian Mathews, Sai Nithin Reddy Kantareddy, Shijing Sun +7
We present a new approach to ubiquitous sensing for indoor applications, using high-efficiency and low-cost indoor perovksite photovoltaic cells as external power sources for backs…
Embedding Physics Domain Knowledge into a Bayesian Network Enables Layer-by-Layer Process Innovation for Photovoltaics
Zekun Ren, Felipe Oviedo, Muang Thway +15
Process optimization of photovoltaic devices is a time-intensive, trial and error endeavor, without full transparency of the underlying physics, and with user-imposed constraints t…
Revisiting Thin Silicon for Photovoltaics: A Technoeconomic Perspective
Zhe Liu, Sarah E. Sofia, Hannu S. Laine +4
Adopting thin Si wafers for PV reduces capital expenditure (capex) and manufacturing cost, and accelerates the growth of PV manufacturing. There are two key questions about thin Si…
Accelerating Photovoltaic Materials Development via High-Throughput Experiments and Machine-Learning-Assisted Diagnosis
Shijing Sun, Noor T. P. Hartono, Zekun D. Ren +15
Accelerating the experimental cycle for new materials development is vital for addressing the grand energy challenges of the 21st century. We fabricate and characterize 75 unique h…
