Are heterojunction solar cells compatible with IBC technology?

Heterojunction solar cells are compatible with IBC technology, ie. the cell metallisation is entirely on the back surface. A Heterojunction IBC cell is often abbreviated to HBC.

What is the architecture-dependent charge distribution model for photovoltaic devices?

An architecture-dependent charge distribution model is proposed to understand the unique photovoltaic behavior. Photovoltaic devices require reliable and scalable growth methods to produce the constituent materials.

Are nhjs suitable for photovoltaic applications?

The NHJs formed by the nanorods/nanowires of narrow-bandgap semiconductors on wide-bandgap semiconductors (e.g., TiO 2, ZnO) films should be of great interest for photovoltaic application in that they combine together the good absorption and straightforward charge transport channels, but their preparation still remains a challenge.

Does shading affect the energy yield of Multicrystal PV modules?

It is found that under shading conditions, a poor PV array lay-out can leads to large energy losses and even small shadow is appreciably affect the energy yield. This research work investigated the modular characteristics of Multicrystal PV modules configured as series, parallel and series-parallel for different percentages of shading.

How effective is hydrogenated intrinsic amorphous silicon in SHJ solar cells?

In SHJ cells, hydrogenated intrinsic amorphous silicon is very effective at passivating defects existing at the absorber surface. Understanding the behaviour of defects, and how they interact with hydrogen over time and in manufacturing processes, is crucial for maintaining the stability and performance of SHJ solar cells.
