研究目的
Investigating the feasibility of implementing imprinted pyramid textures for light management at the sun-facing air-glass interface of LPC silicon thin-film solar cells as a facile, but effective alternative to texturing the glass-silicon interface.
研究成果
Implementing imprinted pyramid textures at the sun-facing air-glass interface of LPC silicon thin-film solar cells provides a technologically facile method that improves light management without compromising electronic material quality. This approach allows for independent optimization of optical performance and is applicable to other solar cells with a glass superstrate.
研究不足
The study focuses on the optical performance enhancement through texturing the air-glass interface, but does not extensively explore the impact on electronic material quality beyond confirming that it remains unaffected.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study involves the use of nano-imprint lithography (NIL) to create pyramid textures on the sun-facing side of the glass superstrate for improved light management in liquid phase crystallized silicon thin-film solar cells.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Liquid phase crystallized silicon thin-film absorbers are produced on Corning Eagle XG glasses.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Includes a Park Systems XE-70 atomic force microscope, KEYENCE VK laser scanning confocal microscope, PerkinElmer Lambda 1050 photo-spectrometer, and a WXS-156S-L2 solar simulator.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The process involves glass cleaning, deposition of a three-layer interlayer stack, silicon absorber deposition, liquid phase crystallization, and implementation of an interdigitated back contacting scheme.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
Optical properties were measured as haze and transmittance, and solar cell performance was determined by I–V characteristics and quantum efficiency measurements.
