Enhancement of solar cell efficiency via luminescent downshifting by an optimized coverglass
摘要： A novel approach to enhance the solar cell efficiency via employing a luminescent downshifting mechanism is presented in this work. Gold metal ions were diffused into a commercially available sodalime silicate glass using a versatile field-assisted solid-state ion diffusion technique under different experimental conditions. Some of these samples were irradiated with ns-laser to segregate the diffused ions into dimers and trimers to enhance their luminescence characteristics. The consequent structural modifications in the glass matrix were examined using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Optical absorption and luminescence measurements were performed to check the presence of resonant plasmonic absorption of nanoclusters and suitability of the samples as luminescent downshifters, respectively. At UV excitation wavelengths (260 and 340 nm), the doped samples downshifted the solar spectrum compared to their undoped counterparts. Furthermore, ns-laser irradiation of the doped samples significantly enhanced the luminescence intensity in comparison to the unirradiated samples. Real-time performance of these samples was tested by measuring the output power of a Si solar cell covered with the treated coverglass when illuminated with a solar simulator. Finally, the Vicker's micro-indentation was applied to conclude that ionic diffusion increased the glass hardness as well.

Pb and Li co-doped NiOx for efficient inverted planar perovskite solar cells
摘要： Organic-inorganic halide perovskites solar cells have garnered increasing attention in recent years due to the dramatic rise in power conversion efficiencies (PCEs). In perovskite solar cells (PSCs), selecting appropriate hole transport materials to insert between perovskite layer and electrodes can improve Schottky contact, facilitate the hole transport, therefore reduce charge recombination, and therefore improve cell performance. Doping of metal cation is an effective means to regulate energy level structure and change its conductivity. In this study, we novelly introduce the Pb2+ doped NiOx as the hole transport materials to decrease the energy loss between NiOx and the perovskite layer, which improves open-circuit voltage (Voc) of the PSCs. In order to improve the conductivity of the NiOx film, the Li+ co-doping is introduced. We introduce Pb and Li co-doping strategy to match the work function of doped NiOx with perovskite valence band energy level, and increase the conductivity of NiOx for high-efficiency inverted planar PSCs. The Pb and Li co-doped NiOx devices exhibit efficient hole extraction and enhanced conductivity, which improve the performance of inverted planar PSCs to 17.02% compared with 15.40% of the undoped device.

Binary ionic liquid electrolytes for copper indium sulfide quantum dot sensitized-TiO2 solar cell to achieve long-term durability
摘要： This work demonstrates a straightforward strategy to develop the copper-indium-sul?de (CIS) quantum dot-sensitized solar cells (QDSSCs) consisting of ionic liquids (ILs) as electrolyte instead of any volatile solvent. The power conversion ef?ciency (PCE) of the solar cell yielded with 0.36% in the presence of 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium sul?de ([BMIm][S2?/Sn2?]) and 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium thiocyanate ([BMIm][SCN]) exhibited an improvement of JSC and FF yielding with 0.75% (JSC: 8.69 mA cm?2, VOC: 0.32 V, FF 26.8%). It exhibited long-term stability within 20% drops after 72 h-continuous photo-irradiation and subsequent storage for more than 1300 h in dark. It is due to suppression of the volatilization of solvent and decomposition of sul?de/polysul?de (S2?/Sn2?) anions. The solar cell performances were found to promote as an increase of interfacial charge transfer ef?ciency between electrolyte and electrodes by means of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy.

The role of cation and anion dopant incorporated into a ZnO electron transporting layer for polymer bulk heterojunction solar cells
摘要： Doping is a widely-implemented strategy for enhancing the inherent electronic properties of charge transport layers in photovoltaic devices. A facile solution-processed zinc oxide (ZnO) and various cation and anion-doped ZnO layers were synthesized via the sol–gel method and employed as electron transport layers (ETLs) for inverted polymer solar cells (PSCs). The results indicated that all PSCs with doped ZnO ETLs exhibited better photovoltaic performance compared with the PSCs with a pristine ZnO ETL. By exploring the role of various anion and cation dopants (three compounds with the same Al3+ cation: Al(acac)3, Al(NO3)3, AlCl3 and three compounds with the same Cl? anion: NH4Cl, MgCl2, AlCl3), we found that the work function changed to favor electronic extraction only when the Cl anion was involved. In addition, the conductivity of ZnO was enhanced more with the Al3+ cation. Therefore, in inverted solar cells, doping with Al3+ and Cl? delivered the best power conversion efficiency (PCE). The maximum PCE of 10.38% was achieved from the device with ZnO doped with Al+ and Cl?.

A zwitterionic polymer as an interfacial layer for efficient and stable perovskite solar cells
摘要： Perovskite solar cells have been rapidly developed in the past ten years. It was demonstrated that the interfacial layer plays an important role in device performance of perovskite solar cells. In this study, we report utilization of a photoinitiation-crosslinked zwitterionic polymer, namely dextran with carboxybetaine modified by methacrylate (Dex-CB-MA), as an interfacial layer to improve the film morphology of the CH3NH3PbI3 photoactive layer and the interfacial contact between the poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)-poly(styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) hole extraction layer and CH3NH3PbI3 photoactive layer. It is found that the Dex-CB-MA thin layer forms a better band alignment between the PEDOT:PSS hole extraction layer and CH3NH3PbI3 photoactive layer, and improves the crystallization of the CH3NH3PbI3 photoactive layer, resulting in efficient charge carrier transport. As a result, perovskite solar cells with the PEDOT:PSS/Dex-CB-MA hole extraction layer exhibit more than 30% enhancement in efficiency and dramatically boosted stability as compared with that with the PEDOT:PSS hole extraction layer. Our studies provide an effective and facile way to fabricate stable perovskite solar cells with high power conversion efficiency.

Highly crystalline CsPbI <sub/>2</sub> Br films for efficient perovskite solar cells <i>via</i> compositional engineering
摘要： All-inorganic CsPbI2Br shows high thermal stability for promising application in perovskite solar cells (PSCs). The performance of PSCs is significantly affected by their morphology and crystallinity induced by compositional ratio, solvent/anti-solvent engineering and post thermal annealing. In this study, the compositional ratio effect of two precursors, PbI2 and CsBr, on the power conversion efficiency (PCE) of a device with ITO/SnO2/CsPbI2Br/Spiro-MeOTAD/Au structure was investigated. With the assistance of anti-solvent chlorobenzene, perovskite with a PbI2 : CsBr ratio of 1.05 : 1 showed a high quality thin film with higher crystallinity and larger grain size. In addition, the molar ratio of precursors PbI2 and CsBr improved the PCE of the PSCs, and the PSCs fabricated using the perovskite with an optimal ratio of PbI2 and CsBr exhibited a PCE of 13.34%.

摘要： The perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have been extensively interested and its performance has rapidly increased up to 24.2 %. Layer thickness and charge mobility are crucial for high-performance perovskite solar cells. In this paper, we study the effect of layer thickness and charge mobilities on some parameters in perovskite solar cell based on structure of FTO/TiOx/SnO2/FAIMABrPbI2PbBr2/Spiro-OMeTAD/Ag by using the GPVDM (General- purpose Photovoltaic Device Model) software. The simulation results show that the best optimized power conversion efficiency of 23.88 % can be obtained. The optimal layer thickness in the simulation of TiOx, SnO2, FAIMABrPbI2PbBr2, Spiro-OMeTAD are 50 nm, 30 nm, 400 nm, 30 nm, respectively. The optimal electron and hole mobilities of photoactive layer are 2?10-5 m2V-1s-1and 2?10-6 m2V-1s-1, respectively. Comparative study of simulation and experiment are observed, that performance of 15.93 % of efficiency can be experimentally achieved, however the model of this solar cell is observed 18.43 % of efficiency by simulation.

Rationally pairing photoactive materials for high-performance polymer solar cells with efficiency of 16.53%
摘要： The emergence of non-fullerene acceptors (NFA) offers a promising opportunity to develop high-performance donor/acceptor pairs with high power conversion efficiency, as NFAs offer tunable energy levels, broad absorption and suitable aggregation property. In order to enhance light-harvesting capability of active layers, we choose a wide bandgap polymer PTQ10 as the donor to blend with a narrow bandgap NFA Y6 as the acceptor. In comparison with PTQ10:IDIC blend, ~130 nm red-shifted absorption spectrum is observed in the PTQ10:Y6 blend, which potentially enhance the short-circuit current density (Jsc) for the PSCs. In addition, the optimal PTQ10:Y6 blend shows higher photoluminescence quenching efficiency and more efficient charge separation, higher charge mobilities, as well as weaker bimolecular recombination over the PTQ10:IDIC blend, which leads to an outstanding power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 16.53%, with a notable Jsc of 26.65 mA cm?2 and fill factor (FF) of 0.751.

Ternary Polymer Solar Cells Facilitating Improved Efficiency and Stability
摘要： The use of a ternary active layer offers a promising approach to enhance the power conversion efficiency (PCE) of polymer solar cells (PSCs) via simply incorporating a third component. Here, a ternary PSC with improved efficiency and stability facilitated by a new small molecule IBC-F is demonstrated. Even though the PBDB-T:IBC-F-based device gives an extremely low PCE of only 0.21%, a remarkable PCE of 15.06% can be realized in the ternary device based on PBDB-T:IE4F-S:IBC-F with 20% IBC-F, which is ≈10% greater than that (PCE = 13.70%) of the control binary device based on PBDB-T:IE4F-S. The improvement in the device performance of the ternary PSC is mainly attributed to the enhancement of fill factor, which is due to the improved charge dissociation and extraction, suppressed bimolecular and trap-assisted recombination, longer charge-carrier lifetime, and enhanced intermolecular interactions for preferential face-on orientation. Additionally, the ternary device with 20% IBC-F shows better thermal and photoinduced stability over the control binary device. This work provides a new angle to develop the third components for building ternary PSCs with enhanced photovoltaic performance and stability for practical applications.

Improved Restricted Control Set Model Predictive Control (iRCS-MPC) Based Maximum Power Point Tracking of Photovoltaic Module
摘要： This paper presents a robust two stage maximum power point tracking (MPPT) system of the photovoltaic (PV) module using an improved restricted control set model predictive control (iRCS-MPC) technique. The suggested work is improved in two aspects; a revision in conventional P&O algorithm is made by employing three distinct step sizes for different conditions, and an improvement in conventional MPC algorithm. The improved MPC algorithm is based on the single step prediction horizon that provides less computational load and swift tracking of maximum power point (MPP) by applying the control pulses directly to the converter switch. The computer aided experimental results for various environmental scenarios revealed that compared with the conventional method (conventional P&O + MPC), for the PV power and inductor current, the undershoot and overshoot is decreased to 68% and 35% respectively under stiff environmental conditions. In addition, the settling time needed to reach a stable state is significantly reduced in the proposed system. The viability of the solution suggested is verified in MATLAB/Simulink and by hardware experimentation.
