Accelerated development of amorphous InZnO thin films as transparent conductive Cu diffusion barriers
Stefanie Frick, Reyu Sakakibara, Manuel Kober-Czerny +4
In light of the increasing supply chain concerns regarding silver for solar cell metallization, the replacement of the silver contacts by copper is desirable. As copper diffuses re…
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…
Limit of light coupling strength in solar cells
A. Naqavi, F. -J. Haug, C. Ballif +2
We introduce a limit for the strength of coupling light into the modes of solar cells. This limit depends on both a cell's thickness and its modal properties. For a cell with refra…
Angular behavior of the absorption limit in thin film silicon solar cells
Ali Naqavi, Franz-Josef Haug, Karin Söderström +5
We investigate the angular behavior of the upper bound of absorption provided by the guided modes in thin film solar cells. We show that the 4n^2 limit can be potentially exceeded…
Light trapping in solar cells at the extreme coupling limit
Ali Naqavi, Franz-Josef Haug, Corsin Battaglia +2
We calculate the maximal absorption enhancement obtainable by guided mode excitation in a weakly absorbing dielectric slab over wide wavelength ranges. The slab mimics thin film si…
