The device physics of commercially dominant diffused‐junction silicon solar cells is well
understood, allowing sophisticated optimization of this class of devices. Recently, so‐called …

In this paper, a Firefly algorithm is proposed for identification and comparative study of five,
seven and eight parameters of a single and double diode solar cell and photovoltaic module …

Abstract Antimony selenide (Sb 2 Se 3) based thin film solar cells have recently drawn a
growing research interest due to their increasing power conversion efficiency, proper …

Wurtzite-derived copper–zinc–tin sulfide nanoparticle films were observed to undergo a
phase transformation to a kesterite phase when exposed to Se vapor at 500° C. The …

a-Si/c-Si (amorphous Silcon/crystalline Silicon) heterojunction solar cells exhibit several
distinctive dark and light IV nonideal features. The dark IV of these cells exhibits unusually …

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 …

In this work, the generation and stability of defects in molybdenum oxide (MoO3) is studied
in detail. We found that the defects generated by annealing are typically more stable against …

Green energy from Solar PV is getting increased attention in the industries due to the falling
price of solar panels in the world market. A grid-tied inverter is one of the major components …

Parasitic shunt formation is an important cause of variability and module efficiency loss in all
photovoltaic technologies. In this letter, we quantify the nature of this shunt variability in four …

We establish that an oft-used radical polymer, poly (2, 2, 6, 6-tetramethylpiperidinyloxy
methacrylate)(PTMA), has a solid-state hole mobility value on the order of 10− 4 cm 2 V− 1 …
