Silicon Solar Cell Improvements

description: 27th European Photovoltaic Solar Energy Conference and Exhibition; 1641-1644
description: As the field of photovoltaics has come to the limits of screen printed emitter contacts, there has been a
number of laser ablation applications in the emitter metallization route recently. However there is severe damage
introduced into the surface of silicon when conventional long pulse lasers are applied. Due to the fact that stable solid
state lasers which emit ultrashort pulses are now available it is possible to achieve much more precise damage-free
selective removal of passivating coatings. The opened windows are covered by the seed metal layer, such as Ni by
electroless deposition. Metal thickening by electroless deposition is performed finally. To be fully sure about
introduction of the ablation process into the industrial scale it is necessary to analyze the ablation mechanisms in
detail. Samples ablated by 300 fs duration 343 nm wavelength laser pulses have been examined using various surface
analysis techniques in this work. Finally complete solar cells have been produced using the most suitable regime.

description: 27th European Photovoltaic Solar Energy Conference and Exhibition; 4291-4293
description: Solar powered refrigeration and freezing for remote areas has drawn attention for decades, and numerous systems
have been developed with either thermal or electric energy input. However, the commercial success and market
dissemination have been limited, mainly due to the high cost of DC powered special solar refrigerators. Problems
with low lifetime of batteries have also been a frequent problem in stand-alone installations. This paper shows
alternatives to battery energy storage in PV powered refrigeration systems and reports some important results from
field test and laboratory measurements of innovative control and energy storage options.
The objective of the work described here, has been to develop and demonstrate a grid-independent cold storage
system for perishable food, medicine or other goods, with a special focus on the need for such systems in developing
countries with a sparse and unreliable supply of electricity. The project is directly based on the result from the
international “SolarChill” project where a unique battery less solar driven vaccine refrigerator was developed by
Vestfrost in cooperation with Danish Technological Institute.

description: We consider a five-dimensional Einstein-Chern-Simons action which is composed of a gravitational sector and a sector of matter, where the gravitational sector is given by a Chern-Simons gravity action instead of the Einstein-Hilbert action, and where the matter sector is given by a perfect fluid. The gravitational lagrangian is obtained gauging some Lie-algebras, which in turn, were obtained by S-expansion procedure of Anti-de Sitter and de Sitter algebras. On the cosmological plane, we discuss the field equations resulting from the Anti-de Sitter and de Sitter frameworks and we show analogies with four-dimensional cosmological schemes.

description: In these notes we review Klimcik's construction of noncommutative gauge theory on the fuzzy supersphere. This theory has an exact SUSY gauge symmetry with a finite number of degrees of freedom and thus in principle it is amenable to the methods of matrix models and Monte Carlo numerical simulations. We also write down in this article a novel fuzzy supersymmetric scalar action on the fuzzy supersphere.

description: In this work, we report on progress in nickel silicide formation by excimer laser annealing (ELA) using single large
area (10x10 mm2) pulses. The impact of both Ni and SiNx:H thicknesses were evaluated in order to precisely determine
the ELA process window on shallow homogeneous emitters (~85 Ω/sq).
Large area PERC type solar cells were fabricated using the ELA process, consisting in a step-and-repeat approach, to
form self-aligned nickel silicides contacts that were subsequently copper plated. Cells processed with the ELA process
showed a 0.5% absolute increase in efficiency compared to reference SP-Ag contacts thanks to reduced shading and
contact resistance losses. In this work, the best performing cell with the ELA process reached a 20.0% energy conversion
efficiency with Jsc=39.3 mA/cm2, Voc=650mV, and FF=78.3%.
Finally, metal contact adhesion was evaluated by measuring soldered ribbon adhesion at a 45° angle with
encouraging average values of 1.5 N/mm.

description: An overview of the development status of the RST (Ribbon on Sacrificial Template) process for the
fabrication of low cost crystalline silicon solar cells is presented. Experimental results, correlated with modeling
studies, focus on i) the geometrical characteristics of RST ribbons and the wafer production yield, ii) the crystalline

mc-Si wafers obtained from the RST process, with an overview of the performances of PV cells made on the wafers,
and finally iv) an estimate of the fabrication cost per Wp of RST wafers. Very thin and flat multicrystalline silicon
wafers are currently produced over tens of meters at a R&D scale at Solarforce, with high wafer fabrication yield
close to 90% and conversion efficiencies above 14%. Based on the present results, the ultimate performances of the
process have been estimated and used to evaluate the cost of the RST technology below 18 c€/Wp, with perspectives
down to 10 c€/Wp.

description: Monolayer molybdenum trioxide (MoO$_3$) is an emerging two-dimensional (2D) material with high electrical conductivity. Using first-principles calculations and a Boltzmann transport theoretical framework, we predict record low room-temperature phonon thermal conductivity ($κ_p$) of 1.57 W/mK and 1.26 W/mK along the principal in-plane directions of MoO$_3$ monolayer. The behavior is attributed to the combination of soft flexural and in-plane acoustic modes, which are coupled through the finite layer thickness, and to the strong bonding anharmonicity, which gives rise to significant 3- and 4-phonon scattering events. These insights suggest new indicators for guiding the search of 2D materials with low $κ_p$. Our result motivates experimental $κ_p$ measurements in MoO$_3$, and its applications as a thermoelectric and thermally protective material.

description: An accurate method is described for determining dopant profiles of laser-doped areas on
multicrystalline silicon wafers from electrochemical capacitance-voltage measurements. The method is based on the
calibration of dopant profiles using the combination of contact area and depth measurements of the etched area and is
extended to uneven (i.e. textured) surfaces. The contact area is obtained by geometrical measurements and surface
area factor measurements. The total etch depth is obtained by subtracting height profiles before and after etching. The
calibrated dopant profiles are compared to secondary ion mass spectrometry measurements and found to be in
excellent agreement.

description: A nonlinear transformation approach is formulated for the correlated fermions' thermodynamics through a medium-scaling effective action. An auxiliary implicit variable-effective chemical potential is introduced to characterize the non-Gaussian fluctuations physics. By incorporating the nonlocal correlation effects, the achieved grand partition function is made of coupled highly nonlinear parametric equations. Analytically, the low temperature expansions for the strongly interacting unitary Fermi gas are performed for the adiabatic compressibility-sound speed and specific heat with the Sommerfeld lemma. The expressions for the Landau Fermi-Liquid parameters $F_0^s$ and $F_1^s$ of the strongly interacting fermion system are obtained. As a universal constant, the effective fermion mass ratio is $m^*/m={10/9}$ at unitarity.

description: In this paper we used the inkjet printing technology to deposit some of the layers that are crucial for the
performance of polymer solar cells: the anode and the photoactive film. In particular, we investigated how the ink
composition and the printing parameters (drop emission frequency, drops overlapping degree, substrate temperature)
affect the electrical, optical and morphological properties of inkjet printed layers. Since the commonly used anode
for polymer solar cells is the ITO and this material has some disadvantages like the low flexibility and the cost, we
optimized the printing condition of an ITO-free alternative: a dispersion of poly(3,4-
ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrene sulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) suitably modified with dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO).
Afterward, in order to realize the photoactive layer, we investigated an ink based on a blend of poly(3-
hexylthiophene) (P3HT) and [6,6]-phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM) dissolved in single solvents, 1,2-
dichlorobenzene (DCB) and chlorobenzene (CB), and their mixture. The blends were printed on the top of spincoated
PEDOT:PSS. The effects of the solvent properties (boiling point, surface tension) and of the printing
parameters on the morphology of the organic layer were investigated.

description: We consider the possibility to detect right-handed neutrinos, which are mostly singlets of the Standard Model gauge group, at future accelerators. Substantial mixing of these neutrinos with the active neutrinos requires a cancellation of different contributions to the light neutrino mass matrix at the level of 10^{-8}. We discuss possible symmetries behind this cancellation and argue that they always lead to conservation of total lepton number. Light neutrino masses can be generated by small perturbations violating these symmetries. In the most general case, LHC physics and the mechanism of neutrino mass generation are essentially decoupled; with additional assumptions, correlations can appear between collider observables and features of the neutrino mass matrix.

description: 27th European Photovoltaic Solar Energy Conference and Exhibition; 1289-1292
description: Two-dimensional simulations are performed on solar cell designs with locally contacted, passivated
rear surfaces with various contact structures to assess the physical cause of inversion-layer shunting that has been
experimentally observed in such devices. Six variations on the local rear contact structure are investigated to
determine the conditions under which shunting occurs and how the shunting affects the flow of current through the
device. In addition, passivation using an accumulation layer is compared to inversion-layer passivation. Since a
p-type substrate is assumed in this investigation, high-quality silicon nitride (SiNx) films are used to provide
inversion-layer passivation, while high-quality aluminum oxide (Al2O3) films are used for accumulation-layer
passivation. It is found that when the local rear contact is insufficiently separated from the passivating dielectric
layer, parasitic shunting can occur — but only if the passivating dielectric induces an inversion layer. The effect can
be avoided by using a passivating dielectric that induces an accumulation layer instead. This implies that a great
degree of process control in rear contact formation is required for SiNx passivation of p-type substrates and suggests
that Al2O3 could bring higher production yields.
The depressive self-schema : its relationship to the anxiety self-schema and to changes in depressed mood
Creators: name: Cheung, Elsie
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: The self-referent encoding task (SRET) was employed to investigate the content and stability of the depressive self-schema. Two central hypotheses were proposed: the depressive self-schema is characterized by anxiety, as well as, depressive content; and certain aspects of the depressive self-schema remain stable across time and across remitted depressed mood. Study 1 ensured the appropriateness of the stimulus adjectives for the SRET. Forty-five undergraduates rated adjectives on the properties of anxiety, depression, emotional intensity, social desirability, and imagery. These adjectives formed four word conditions: anxiety-content, depression-content, negative-content, and positive-content. Multivariate analysis suggested that these four word conditions were roughly equated for word length, word frequency, and ratings of imagery, and emotional intensity, but were distinguishable with respect to their ratings of anxiety, depression, and social desirability. Study 2 employed the SRET as a potential method of documenting the relationship between anxiety and depression. Twenty-two moderately depressed, 40 mildly depressed, and 26 nondepressed undergraduates rated randomly presented sets of adjectives (described in Study 1) as to their self-descriptiveness. Both the types of self-descriptors and the rating times were recorded for this SRET. This task was followed by an intentional recall task for the adjectives, and the number of recalled words per adjective set was recorded. Multivariate analyses suggested that the nondepressed subjects showed a schematic bias in their processing of the positive-content words. Although the two depressed groups showed a bias in the processing of the depression-content words, this bias was not found in the processing of the anxiety-content words. These results were discussed in terms of the utility of the SRET for the domain of anxiety. Study 3 asked which aspects of depresssive schematic processing remain constant across time and across remitted depressed mood. Subjects from Study 2 were reassessed approximately three months after they had first completed the SRET. Among nondepressed subjects who remained nondepressed and depressed subjects who remained depressed, highly consistent schematic processing was observed across the two testing sessions. Among subjects who were depressed at the first testing session but were no longer depressed at the second testing session, these subjects no longer rated the depression-content adjectives as self-descriptive. However their decision latencies for the four groups of adjectives remained stable across the two testing sessions. Implications of these results were discussed in terms of cognitive structures as causal markers in depression.

description: Markarian 421 is the nearest high-energy peaked blazar and also is the first extragalactic source to be detected in multi-TeV $γ$-rays. It has been observed in multiwavelength for exceptionally long period of time with dense monitoring and several major outbursts have been detected from this source. In March 2010, the source was in a high state of activity and was observed in multiwavelength by various telescopes for 13 consecutive days. During this period the position of the synchrotron peak was found to be above $10^{17}$ Hz and also the position of the second peak was shifted towards higher energy, a signature of extreme HBL-like behavior. We observed that the standard photohadronic model is inadequate to explain the observed spectra. However, a recently proposed two-zone photohadronic model explains very well the GeV-TeV flaring events observed by both MAGIC and VERITAS telescopes. From the observation of the highest energy $γ$-ray event on MJD 55266 we also estimated the minimum bulk Lorentz factor.

The aim of this article is precisely to determine the Hochschild homology and cohomology in two cases of algebraic varieties. On the one hand, we consider singular curves of the plane; here we recover, in a different way, a result proved by Fronsdal and make it more precise. On the other hand, we are interested in Klein surfaces. The use of a complex suggested by Kontsevich and the help of Groebner bases allow us to solve the problem.

description: Photovoltaic silicon wafers are currently obtained through ingot casting in silica crucibles covered by a porous silicon
nitride coating which prevents sticking of solidified silicon to the crucible. The purpose of this work is to develop a
new injection molding process of multicrystalline silicon wafers in order to avoid kerf losses due to the wire sawing
steps. Mold parts are demonstrated to be reusable via a surface modification of the porous graphite substrate with a
SiC impervious layer, which is validated through a comprehensive study of the interactions (i.e. wetting, infiltration
and adhesion) of molten Si on graphite-based Si3N4-coated substrates performed by the sessile drop technique.
Labscale mono-wafer and injection multi-wafer molding experiments are designed in order to explore the
consequences of said detrimental surface to volume ratio inherent in the molding process, on the concentration of
impurities contained in the silicon and its microstructure. Conclusions are drawn regarding the solid / liquid interface
destabilization and velocity during this directional crystallization process.

In this paper we combine observations of Lyman-alpha absorption towards high redshift quasars with the measured UV luminosity function of high redshift galaxies to constrain the escape fraction (f_esc) of ionizing photons from galaxies at z ~ 5.5-6. The observed Lyman-alpha transmission constrains the escape fraction to lie in the range f_esc ~ 10-25 % (at z ~ 5.5-6). Excluding halos with M< 10^10 M_sun (as might be expected if galaxy formation is suppressed due to the reionization of the IGM) implies a larger escape fraction of f_esc ~ 20-45 %. Using the numerical results to calibrate an analytic relation between the escape fraction and minimum galaxy halo mass we also extrapolate our results to a mass (M~10^8 M_sun) corresponding to the hydrogen cooling threshold. In this case we find f_esc ~ 5-10 %, consistent with observed estimates at lower redshift. We find that the escape fraction of high redshift galaxies must be greater than 5 % irrespepctive of galaxy mass. Based on these results we use a semi-analytic description to model the reionization history of the IGM, assuming ionizing sources with escape fractions suggested by our numerical simulations. We find that the IBG observed at z ~ 5.5-6 implies a sufficient number of ionizing photons to have reionized the Universe by z ~ 6. However, if the minimum mass for star-formation were greater than 10^9 M_sun, the IBG would be over-produced at redshifts less than z ~ 5. In summary, our results support a scenario in which the IGM was reionized by low mass galaxies.

description: The Statistical Process Control (SPC) and the Automated Process Control (APC) have a common goal: achieve optimal product quality by controlling variations in the process. The work in this paper will present a developed integration methodology of the APC in the SPC which is based on discretization of the transfer functions relating to each component of the process. We proposed on the one hand, a new control rule which is based on a system of first order. In the other hand, we showed how to establish control charts to a process of the type AR (1). Using simulation experiments, we showed that the proposed control rule reduced variability by comparing it with that proposed in literature.

description: Subaru Strategic Program with the Hyper-Suprime Cam (HSC-SSP) has proven to be successful with its extremely-wide area coverage in past years. Taking advantages of this feature, we report initial results from exploration and research of expansive over- and under-dense structures at $z=$ 0.3-1 based on the second Public Data Release where optical 5-band photometric data for $\sim$ eight million sources with $i<23$ mag are available over $\sim360$ square degrees. We not only confirm known superclusters but also find candidates of titanic over- and under-dense regions out to $z=1$. The mock data analysis suggests that the density peaks would involve one or more massive dark matter haloes ($>10^{14}$ M$_\odot$) of the redshift, and the density troughs tend to be empty of massive haloes over $>10$ comoving Mpc. Besides, the density peaks and troughs at $z<0.6$ are in part identified as positive and negative weak lensing signals respectively, in mean tangential shear profiles, showing a good agreement with those inferred from the full-sky weak lensing simulation. The coming extensive spectroscopic surveys will be able to resolve these colossal structures in three-dimensional space. The number density information over the entire survey field will be available as grid-point data on the website of the HSC-SSP data release (https://hsc.mtk.nao.ac.jp/ssp/data-release/).

description: PV systems are unstable energy sources affected by the fluctuations of solar radiation. Therefore,
forecast information on the expected power production is very useful for efficient use of the solar power and for
management of the electricity grids. The purpose of this study is to detect the appropriate numerical conditions of the
Numerical Weather Forecasting and Analysis System (NuWFAS), for next day forecast of solar radiation. Numerical
simulations (for 4 days in summer and 4 days in winter) are carried out with alternative sub-models of five cloud
microphysics and three solar radiation, and with two different number of atmospheric layers and three different solar
radiation time step. The numerical results of solar radiation at the ground are compared with observed data in Kanto
plain, Japan. It is found that the forecast accuracies are obviously improved by increasing the number of atmospheric
layers in the model. In addition, by using more complicated cloud physics and smaller solar radiation time step,
forecast errors can be reduced about 25%, and the effect of error reduction is evidently found in cloudy conditions.

description: ENEA in collaboration with KANEKA is continuing a survey of a-Si based thin film modules PV plants in
order to test and compare their operational performance over long time of exposure. Two plants of about 1 kWp have been
monitored, in detail an amorphous a-Si modules (named ASI) plant is under test since 2002, while a micromorph a-Si/μc-Si
modules (named HB) one since 2006. The aim is to evaluate the reliability of the PV modules. Both the energy conversion
efficiency over long working periods and the performances under hard marine environment conditions are parameters under
investigation. A quantitative analysis based on collected data is carried out to evaluate the PV arrays degradation rates.

Silicon Solar Cell Improvements

description: 27th European Photovoltaic Solar Energy Conference and Exhibition; 1595-1598
description: We present a comparison of solar cells featuring homogeneous and selective emitters on devices with passivated surfaces. Solar cells are fabricated on high quality float zone silicon and commercial Czochralski grown silicon substrates. Three different emitter structures are compared, two homogenous ones and one selective emitter. The surfaces are passivated by a thin thermal oxide. The cells feature screen printed metallization and laser fired point contacts on the rear side. Higher conversion efficiencies are found for the cells with a selective emitter. A gain in the open circuit voltage of up to 1.3% is observed for the cells on FZ-Si. This advantage is smaller on the Cz-Si substrates and the recombination active boron oxygen complex further reduces the profit of the selective emitter in fill factor, open circuit voltage and thus conversion efficiency.
Digital image restoration based on pixel simultaneous detection probabilities

description: Here an image restoration on the basis of pixel simultaneous detection probabilities (PSDP) is proposed. These probabilities can be precisely determined by means of correlations measurement [NIMA 586 (2008) 314-326]. The proposed image restoration is based on the solution of matrix equation. Non-zero elements of Toeplitz block matrix with ones on the main diagonal, is determined using PSDP. The number of non zero descending diagonals depends on the detector construction and is not always smaller than 8. To solve the matrix equation, the Gaussian elimination algorithm is used. The proposed restoration algorithm is studied by means of the simulated images (with and without additive noise using PSDP for General Electric Senographe 2000D mammography device detector) and a small area (160x160 pixels) of real images acquired by the above mentioned device. The estimation errors of PSDP and the additive noise magnitude permits to restore images with the precision better than 3% for the above mentioned detector. The additive noise in the real image is present after restoration and almost has the same magnitude. In the restored small area (16x16 mm) of real images, the pixel responses are not correlated. The spatial resolution improvement is also analyzed by the image of an absorber edge.

description: We study the effects of noncommutativity of spacetime geometry on the thermodynamical properties of the de Sitter horizon. We show that noncommutativity results in modifications in temperature, entropy and vacuum energy and that these modifications are of order of the Planck scale, suggesting that the size of the noncommutative parameter should be close to that of the Planck. In an alternative way to deal with noncommutativity, we obtain a quantization rule for the entropy. Since noncommutativity in spacetime geometry modifies the Heisenberg algebra and introduces the general uncertainty principle, we also investigate the above problem in this framework.
