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 …

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 …

In this paper, we present a physics-based analytical model for copper indium gallium
diselenide (CIGS) solar cells that describes the illumination-and temperature-dependent …

The performance of modern a-Si/c-Si heterojunction (HIT) solar cells is dictated by a
complex interplay of multiple device parameters. A single characterization experiment [eg …

Partial shading in thin film solar panels can result in reverse bias stress across shaded cells.
Therefore, it is important to understand the effect of such reverse stress in commercially …

Understanding the effects of device parameters on carrier transport is essential for the
design of high efficiency aSi/c-Si heterojunction solar cells. It is well known that the dark …

Thin film photovoltaics (TFPV) offer low cost alternatives to conventional crystalline Silicon (c-
Si) PV, and can enable novel applications of PV technology. Their large scale adoption …

The large-scale deployment of PV technology is very sensitive to the material and process
costs. There are several potential candidates among pn heterojunction (HJ) solar cells …
