How Grain Boundaries Affect The Efficiency of Poly-CdTe Solar-Cells
Sector: Consumer Products • Location: Chicago, Illinois, United States of America
Source: Department of Energy (DOE)
The goal of this project is to develop a fundamental understanding of the role of grain boundaries on the minority carrier lifetime and open-circuit voltage in cadmium telluride thin films by (a) fabricating epitaxial CdTe thin films on b-crystal substrates with well-defined grain boundary structures; (b) studying the atomic and electronic structures of the grain boundary dislocation cores and int

Description
Description | The goal of this project is to develop a fundamental understanding of the role of grain boundaries on the minority carrier lifetime and open-circuit voltage in cadmium telluride thin films by (a) fabricating epitaxial CdTe thin films on b-crystal substrates with well-defined grain boundary structures; (b) studying the atomic and electronic structures of the grain boundary dislocation cores and interfacial transport properties; and (c) performing first-principles calculations to determine the density of mid-gap states and find potential passivants. |
