Polycrystalline materials are ubiquitous in technology, and grain boundaries have long been
known to affect materials properties and performance. First principles materials modeling …

The performance of a superstrate TiO 2/Sb 2 Se 3 solar cell, fabricated by close-spaced
sublimation technique (CSS), was improved after the deployment of a seed layer. The seed …

Photonic detection with narrow spectrum selectivity is very important to eliminate the signal
from obtrusive light, which can improve the anti-interference ability of the infrared imaging …

Alkali metal doping and grain boundaries (GB) have been at the center of attention within
the Cu (In, Ga)(S, Se) 2 photovoltaics community for years. This study provides the first …

This paper reports the effect of Na doping Cu 2 ZnSnS 4 powders on the structural,
morphological and optical properties. CZTS powders were synthesized by direct melting …

Pyrite thin films have been prepared by sulfuration of Fe thin films deposited on sodalime
glass substrates. Sulfuration temperatures have ranged from 200° C to 500° C and …

Back interface passivation reduces the back recombination of photogenerated electrons,
whereas aggravates the blocking of hole transport towards back contact, which complicate …

The simulation of solar cell devices is important for the understanding of defect physics and
loss mechanisms in real solar cells. On the other hand, voltage dependent admittance …

Tackling climate change requires complete decarbonization of electricity generation,
industries, transport, and buildings. Net zero emissions (NZE) can only be achieved by …

Cu (In, Ga) Se2 (CIGSe) solar cells stand out as a stable and cost-effective alternative to
mainstream Si photovoltaics, offering costeffectiveness, application versatility, efficient …
