Abstract:
A hole-collecting interlayer layer for organic solar cells, NiO, processed by atomic layer deposition (ALD) was studied. ALD-NiO film offered a novel alternative to efficient hole-collecting interlayers in conventional single-junction organic solar cells. Next, surface modifications with aliphatic amine group containing polymers for use as electron-collecting interlayers were studied. Physisorption of the polymers was found to lead to large reduction of the work function of conducting materials. This approach provides an efficient way to provide air-stable low-work function electrodes for orga

Abstract:
In an attempt to find the optimum number of wells for maximum conversion efficiency a pair of otherwise identical strain balanced samples, one containing 50 wells and the other 65 wells have been characterised. The 65 well sample is found to possess a lower predicted efficiency than the 50 well sample, suggesting that the optimum well number lies between these values. Devices grown using tertiary butyl arsine (TBAs) are found to possess comparable conversion efficiencies to the control cells grown using arsine and slightly superior dark IV characteristics, indicating that TBAs may be substitut

Abstract:
The novel idea of GaSb quantum dots (QDs)1 quantum rings (QRs) stacked layers single junction solar cells have been investigated for the examination and enhancement of the infrared photo response. Initially the investigation used photoluminescence to probe the optical properties of a type-II material interface between GaSb/GaAs using optimum growth temperature for QDs/QRs with two different growth modes (Stranski-Krastanow (SK) and exchange growth); and two different GaSb deposition thickness (1.5ML and 2.IML). The photoluminescence spectra of the stacked epilayers confirmed that the dominant

Full text
Abstract:
Thin film photovoltaics encompass a group of technologies able to harvest light within a few microns thickness. The reduced thickness allows a low cost of manufacture while making the films flexible and adaptable to different surfaces. This, combined with their low weight, positioned thin film solar cells as ideal candidates for building integrated photovoltaics. For the latter, organic solar cells (OSC) can provide a high quality semi-transparency that closely mimics the aesthetics of standard windows. Indeed, some unique features of organic solar cells make them the optimal solution for app

Abstract:
Tunnel junctions for use in solar cells and monolithic multi junction solar cells are studied experimentally. The current density-voltage characteristic of an AlGaAs/AlGaAs tunnel junction having a mesa resistance of 0.11 mO&middot;cm2 is determined using time-averaged measurements. A tunneling peak higher than the operating point of a solar cell is recorded by this method, with a value of &sim;950 A/cm2. Due to the unstable nature of the negative differential resistance region of the current density-voltage curve, measurements of the tunneling peak and valley current densities are obscured. A

Abstract:
This doctorate thesis focuses on investigating the parameter space involved in numerically modeling the bandgap engineering of a GaInP/InGaAs/Ge lattice matched multi-junction solar cell (MJSC) using InAs/InGaAs quantum dots (QDs) in the middle sub-cell. The simulation environment – TCAD Sentaurus – solves the semiconductor equations using finite element and finite difference methods throughout well-defined meshes in the device to simulate the optoelectronic behavior first for single junction solar cells and subsequently for MJSCs with and without quantum dots under concentrated illumination o
