Cadmium telluride (CdTe) is a p-type semiconductor used in thin-film solar cells. To achieve high light-to-electricity conversion, annealing in the presence of CdCl2 is essential, but the underlying mechanism is still under debate. Recent evidence suggests that a reduction in the high density of stacking faults in the CdTe grains is a key process that …
Photovoltaic cells are semiconductor devices that can generate electrical energy based on energy of light that they absorb.They are also often called solar cells because their primary use is to generate electricity specifically from sunlight, but there are few applications where other light is used; for example, for power over fiber one usually uses laser light.
1. Introduction Organic carbon-based photovoltaics (OPVs) are a viable route towards highly flexible, semi-transparent, low manufacturing cost solar cells with an energy payback time on the order of months. 1,2 While previously disparaged as low performing, over the past 5 years OPV cell efficiencies have increased dramatically, now exceeding 18% and …
