6 FAQs about [Dark current of amorphous silicon solar cells]

What are amorphous silicon solar cells?

Amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) solar cells, when deposited on polyimide (PI) foils, are very light (in weight). This basically opens up specific applications in aerospace technology—wherever the weight of the power supply and not its surface area counts.

Do amorphous silicon solar cells need light-trapping?

Amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) solar cells have to be kept extremely thin (thickness below 0.2 μm), so as to maximize the internal electric field Eint, and, thus, allow for satisfactory collection of the photo-generated electrons and holes. Therefore, light-trapping is absolutely essential for a-Si:H cells.

What are amorphous silicon thin films used for?

Amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) thin films are currently widely used as passivation layers for crystalline silicon solar cells, leading, thus, to heterojunction cells (HJT cells), as described in Chap. 7, next-up. HJT cells work with passivated contacts on both sides.

When did amorphous silicon solar cells come out?

Amorphous silicon solar cells were first introduced commercially by Sanyo in 1980 for use in solar-powered calculators, and shipments increased rapidly to 3.5 MWp by 1985 (representing about 19% of the total PV market that year). Shipments of a-Si PV modules reached ~40 MWp in 2001, but this represented only about 11% of the total PV market.

How can iic-1 amorphous silicon solar cells be deposited?

While the early deposition work was performed using primarily DC and RF PECVD , Iic-1 -Amorphous Silicon Solar Cells 283 subsequent studies showed that good quality a-Si alloys could be deposited using VHF (~30-110 MHz) and microwave (~2.45 GHz) PECVD [10, 11].

How are hydrogenated amorphous silicon based thin film solar cells designed?

Hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) based thin film solar cells are designed successfully by using finite-difference time-domain method. Three optical models are developed for comparative studies to optimize the performance of the solar cell.
