摘要： This paper investigates the manufacturability-aware process of p-n junction formation for photovoltaic cells involving with Si nanoparticle layer. The furnace-based dopant diffusion process of forming a p-n junction consumes a substantial amount of energy. In addition, repetitive production steps prevent the possibility of Si ink-based cells integrating onto ?exible substrates. This research examined the local heating dopant diffusion process by using a ?ber laser at a wavelength of 1064 nm. The infrared beam is delivered onto the wafer stack with a nanoparticle carbon layer and n-type Si ink layer on p-type Si substrates. The nanoparticle carbon ?lm absorbs infrared beam energy and converts photon energy as a thermal source to diffuse the n-type dopant in Si ink into the p-type Si wafer. The Si ink in this paper contains a mixture of Si nanoparticles and an n-type spin-on dopant solution. The TEM results show that Si nanoparticles are uniformly dispersed on the Si wafer surface. This research investigated sheet resistance as a function of laser parameters, including laser power, scanning speed, and pulse frequency for the samples coated with Si ink. Secondary ion mass spectroscopy measurements indicate the presence of an n-type dopant in p-type substrates, with an approximate diffusion depth of 100 nm. The results indicate that the proposed infrared laser treatment technique is promising for the formation of p-n junctions with Si ink-based photovoltaic cells.

Lighting flicker: a blind spot in indoor photovoltaic cell characterization
摘要： Pulse width modulation (PWM) driving is common in emerging solid-state or LED lighting. Unlike conventional lighting devices, the peak illumination intensity of a PWM-driven LED can be a hundredfold of average illumination intensity, causing strong lighting flicker. This work addresses the impact of the flicker on indoor amorphous Si (a-Si) photovoltaic cell performance. The power conversion efficiency of an amorphous silicon photovoltaic cell is found to be a function of not the average, but the peak illumination intensity. Indoor photovoltaic cells can thus seriously underperform under PWM-driven solid-state lighting when the peak illumination intensity is high enough to decrement photovoltaic cell performance.

Enhanced photovoltaic performance of quinoxaline-based small molecules through incorporating trifluoromethyl substituents
摘要： Two D-A-D type quinoxaline-based small molecules have been synthesized by Suzuki coupling reaction for solution-processable organic photovoltaic cells (OPVs). The electron-donating triphenyl-amine was connected to both ends of an electron-withdrawing 2,3-diphenylquinoxaline core through thiophene bridge to produce QxTPA. In addition, QxCF3TPA was formed by introducing strong electron-withdrawing trifluoromethyl (CF3) groups into the para-position of the phenyl ring at the 2,3-position of quinoxaline core in QxTPA to explore their effect on the various properties of small molecules. The finding revealed the significant contributions of CF3 substituents in enhancing the photovoltaic performances of OPVs with QxCF3TPA compared to the reference case with QxTPA.

Improving the performance of silicon solar cell by optimizing metallization
摘要： Solar energy exploitation through photovoltaic technology has demonstrated a sustainable way for curbing energy needs and cutting environmental issues happening due to emissions of carbon dioxide, CO2 from the usage of non-renewable energy resources. The purpose of this study was to reduce metallization by choosing optimal metallization on silicon photovoltaic wafer. Using numerical study, the effects of the number of busbars, fingers, and soldering/probe points were analyzed and also the study of the size of busbar and finger was carried out to find the optimal value for each which assures better performance. It is revealed that increasing the number and size of busbars, fingers, and probe points result in increasing fill factor, however, the efficiency of the device is limited to a number which provides the best optimal performance in terms of efficiency, whereas increasing the size (width) of the parameter result in a decrease in efficiency increasing shading factor. The optimal value of prescribed parameters was recorded as 4, 82, and 20 numbers of busbars, fingers, and probe points, respectively, while an optimal value of the width of busbar and finger is found as 0.5 mm and 60 mm, respectively. These values attained efficiency and fill factor above 20% and 80%, respectively. This study finds a realistic method to further diminish the metallization, improve the performance, and reduce the cost of often used industrial silicon photovoltaic cells.

Asymmetric 9,9a?2-bifluorenylidene-based small molecules as the non-fullerene acceptors for organic photovoltaic cells
摘要： Three new asymmetric 9,9'-bifluorenylidene-based derivatives, 2,7-dibutoxyl-3',6'-bis(5-methylenemalononitrile-3-octylthiophen-2-yl)-9,9'-bifluorenylidene (BF-TDCN2), 2,7-dibutoxyl-3',6'-bis(5-(methylene-indene-1,3-dione)-3-octylthiophen-2-yl)-9,9'-bifluorenylidene (BF-TID2) and 2,7-dibutoxyl-3',6'-bis(5-(2-methylene-3-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-inden-1-ylidene)malononitrile)-3-octylthiophen-2-yl)-9,9'-bifluorenylidene (BF-TDCI2), were successfully synthesized by grafting different electron-withdrawing groups (malononitrile (DCN), 1H-indene-1,3(2H)-dione (ID) and 2-(3-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-inden-1-ylidene)malononitrile (DCI)), which were used as the electron acceptors for organic photovoltaic cells. By changing the electron-withdrawing ability of the terminal group, the molecular energy level and band gap can be easily adjusted. The optical bandgaps of the three compounds in the thin films decreased with increasing the electron-withdrawing ability of the terminal group. Besides, the lateral chains of alkoxy groups located at the asymmetric end also play a certain influence on the solubility, molecular aggregation and the miscibility with polymer donor. Among these electron acceptors, the photovoltaic cell fabricated PBDB-T:BF-TDCI2 exhibited a maximum power conversion efficiency of 4.85% with an open-circuit voltage of 0.88 V and a low energy loss of 0.62 eV. By investigating different processing processes, the results showed that the power conversion efficiency can be improved by 20% with simple solvent annealing treatment. Through further study on the morphology and photophysical properties of the active layers, it was found that the processed device had better phase separation size and morphology, which was favorable to enhancing the intermolecular interaction, thus improving exciton separation and charge transfer in the active layer.

An experimental study on photovoltaic module with optimum power point tracking method
摘要： With the latest development in the area of power electronics, the photovoltaic (PV) cell can be made to operate at the optimum peak point with increased system efficiency. To maximize the power on photovoltaic cells under various conditions, optimum power point tracking (OPPT) methods such as conventional and soft computing methods are used. But it is not providing accurate and efficient output due to its randomness, fixed step size, and poor convergence. In this paper, the adaptive differential evolution (ADE) algorithm is introduced in the solar module to obtain the maximum power, and it has the ability to reach the optimum peak with the shorter time period. An Apriori method is used in the proposed ADE algorithm, wherein mutation factor and crossover are used as control parameters to increase the speed. The ruggedness of the ADE algorithm is tested under different shading condition such as no shading, 30% shading, and 50% shading condition. Extensive simulation has been carried out using PV solar module, and the analysis has been tabulated and compared with the existing results. Various statistical metrics such as root mean square error, the relative error, tracking efficiency, standard deviation, and efficiency are used to evaluate the effectiveness and validate the feasibility of the proposed method. Further, hardware has been implemented and tested with this algorithm.

Quantitative trade-off analysis of infrared light absorber effects contributed to photovoltaic cells performance
摘要： It is widely known that organic and inorganic coatings absorb more of the solar spectrum, and due to a considerable share of 45% infrared radiation, the energy efficiency drop by the increasing of temperature should be considered. The purpose of this study is to implement a system to characterize silicon solar cell performance and increasing energy efficiency by imposing such coatings as infrared wave absorber to overcome the Shockley–Queisser limit. In other words, this research efforts to improve cell efficiency (coating effects) in addition to imposing the efficiency decreasing effects (temperature increasing). The core of the study is laboratory and experimental set-up measurements to find an organic absorber with the highest absorbance. Ruthenium-based dye, N719, has shown the best performance in experimental conditions and heat extraction to enhance cell energy efficiency. Due to increased absorption in a solar cell (SC), to control the temperature rise of the system, the fan is used as a cooling system. The imposing of N719 results in increasing energy efficiency by up to 1.38%. It is worth noting that a 1.60% increase in energy efficiency is observed due to temperature reduction by 2 degrees.

Temperature dependence of potential-induced degraded p-type mono-crystalline silicon photovoltaic cell characteristics
摘要： In this paper, the temperature dependence of the characteristic parameters for a p-type mono-crystalline silicon photovoltaic cell before and after a potential-induced degradation (PID) stress, is measured and compared. It is demonstrated that a 9 h PID stress causes both a drastic decrease in the value of shunt resistance by ～35 times and a decrease in the open-circuit voltage, Voc by ～34%. Consequently the maximum power density, Pmax is decreased by ～62%. The temperature coefficient (TC) of Pmax increases from ?0.459 to ?0.330 caused by a 0 to 3 h PID stress and then decreases to ?0.471%/°C caused by a 3 to 9 h PID stress. Before PID stress, the TC of Pmax was determined mainly by the TC of Voc. However, after PID stress, the TC of Pmax was determined both by the TCs of Voc as well as by the fill factor. ? 2019 The Japan Society of Applied Physics
