Transferability of the light-soaking benefits on silicon heterojunction cells to modules
Jean Cattin, Delphine Petri, Jonas Geissbühler +3
We investigate the effect of light soaking and forward electric bias treatment on SHJ solar cells and modules, and in particular the influence of the thermal treatment occurring du…
Influence of Light Soaking on Silicon Heterojunction Solar Cells With Various Architectures
Jean Cattin, Laurie-Lou Senaud, Jan Haschke +4
In this article, we investigate the effect of prolonged light exposure on silicon heterojunction solar cells. We show that, although light exposure systematicallyimproves solar cel…
Influence of local surface defects on the minority-carrier lifetime of passivating-contact solar cells
Jean Cattin, Jan Haschke, Christophe Ballif +1
Unlocking the full potential of passivating contacts, increasingly popular in the silicon solar cell industry, requires determining the minority carrier lifetime. Minor passivation…
Optimized Design of Silicon Heterojunction Solar Cells for Field Operating Conditions
Jean Cattin, Olivier Dupré, Brahim Aïssa +3
Solar modules are currently characterized at standard test conditions (STC), defined at 1000W/m2 and 25 °C. However, solar modules in actual outdoor operating conditions typically…
Analysis of hydrogen distribution and migration in fired passivating contacts (FPC)
Mario Lehmann, Nathalie Valle, Jörg Horzel +11
In this work, the hydrogenation mechanism of fired passivating contacts (FPC) based on c-Si/SiO/nc-SiC(p) stacks was investigated, by correlating the passivation and lo…
Flexible perovskite/Cu(In,Ga)Se2 monolithic tandem solar cells
Fan Fu, Shiro Nishiwaki, Jeremie Werner +6
We report a proof-of-concept two-terminal perovskite/Cu(In, Ga)Se2 (CIGS) monolithic thin-film tandem solar cell grown on ultra-thin (30-microns thick), light-weight, and flexible…
