Progress in Photovoltaics: Research and Applications: Vol 28, No 9

It is shown that the dominant effect of electrostatic potential fluctuations in Cu(In,Ga)Se 2 solar cells is linked to the local variations in the doping densities N D and the interface-charge density N IF introduced via the buffer layer deposition or duration of RbF postdeposition treatment. Furthermore, light soaking was found to reduce

Progress in Photovoltaics: Research and Applications:

Alkali atoms reduce the band tails in Cu (In,Ga)Se 2 solar cells on a 20% efficiency level and beyond. A reduction of the Urbach energy E U, which describes the band tails, leads to an increase of the open-circuit voltage V OC in Cu (In,Ga)Se 2 as well as in other solar cell technologies. Our theoretical model shows that the increase in the V OC cannot be explained

What are new photovoltaic technologies?

Solar cell researchers at NREL and elsewhere are also pursuing many new photovoltaic technologies—such as solar cells made from organic materials, quantum dots, and hybrid organic-inorganic materials (also known as perovskites). These next-generation technologies may offer lower costs, greater ease of manufacture, or other benefits.
