In-Line Post-Process Scribing for Reducing Cell to Module Efficiency Gap in Monolithic Thin Film Photovoltaics
Sourabh Dongaonkar, Muhammad A. Alam
The gap between cell and module efficiency is a major challenge for all photovoltaic (PV) technologies. For monolithic thin film PV modules, a significant fraction of this gap has…
Prospects of Hysteresis-Free Abrupt Switching (0mV/dec) in Landau Switches
Ankit Jain, Muhammad Ashraful Alam
Sub-threshold swing (S) defines the sharpness of ON-OFF switching of a Field Effect Transistor (FET) with S=0 corresponding to abrupt switching characteristics. While thermodynamic…
Emerging Ideas in Nanocantilever based Biological Sensors
Ankit Jain, Muhammad Ashraful Alam
In this review article, we focus on emerging nanocantilever based biological sensors and discuss the response of nanocantilevers towards bio-molecules capture. The article guides t…
Geometrical design of thin film PV modules for improved shade tolerance and performance
Sourabh Dongaonkar, Muhammad A. Alam
Partial shading in photovoltaic modules is an important reliability and performance concern for all photovoltaic technologies. In this paper, we show how cell geometry can be used…
Performance and Reliability Implications of Two Dimensional Shading in Monolithic Thin Film Photovoltaic Modules
Sourabh Dongaonkar, Chris Deline, Muhammad A. Alam
We analyze the problem of partial shading in monolithically integrated thin film photovoltaic (TFPV) modules, and explore how the shape and size of the shadows dictate their perfor…
