We investigated the novel thin film solar cell with nanoplate structure that can solve the conflict between the light absorption and the carrier transport in amorphous silicon thin film solar cell. This structure has n-type amorphous silicon nanoplate array on the substrate, and the p-layer and i-layer are sequentially grown along the surface of each n-type amorphous silicon nanoplate. Under sunlight...
In this letter, we propose an amorphous-silicon (a-Si) solar cell with a nanowire-array structure. The proposed structure has photon absorption and carrier transport that are perpendicular to each other, which could overcome the efficiency limit of an a-Si solar cell. This nanowire structure has an n-type a-Si nanowire array in which the i-layer and the p-layer a-Si are sequentially grown along the...
Global warming and energy shortage are mankind's greatest challenge in the recent years. The solution to this urgent crisis lies in replacing fossil fuel with renewable energy. One of the most attractive types of renewable energy is solar cell technology, and it is already being deployed around the world. Among many type of solar cells, thin film amorphous silicon (a-Si) solar cell is one of the candidate...
