  1. 1. Robust TCO’s for CIGS solar cells based on indium tin oxide

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematik

    Author : Julia Nilsson; [2022]
    Keywords : photovoltaics; solar cells; thin film photovoltaics; PV; TCO; transparent conductive oxide; indium tin oxide; ITO; CIGS; solar power; sputtering; RF sputtering; radio frequency sputtering;

    Abstract : The increasing energy demand, combined with the use of harmful non-renewable energy sources calls for the search of alternative methods to cover our energy need.Renewable energy can be harvested in different ways, through the movement of wind and water, biomass, or directly from the rays of the sun, as in the case of photovoltaic (PV) devices.

  3. 2. Agrivoltaic Implementation in Greenhouses : A Techno-Economic Analysis of Agrivoltaic Installations for Greenhouses in Sweden

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Henrik Gauffin; [2022]
    Keywords : Agrivoltaics; Agrophotovoltaics; Photovoltaics; Greenhouse; Battery Energy Storage System; Agrivoltaics for Greenhouses; Techno-Economic Assesment; AV; APV; PV.;

    Abstract : Due to the growing population and climate change, the world will see an increase in demand for food, freshwater and renewable energy supply. Agrivoltaics has the possibility to address all these problems, by producing food and renewable energy but also by reducing water usage in agriculture. READ MORE

  4. 3. Sputtered Transparent Contact Layers for Bifacial and Tandem Solar Cells

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Solcellsteknik

    Author : Klara Kiselman; [2022]
    Keywords : Solar cells; ITO; indium doped tin oxide; bifacial cell; tandem cell; transparent conductive oxides;

    Abstract : A key to solar cells with lower environmental impact is higher efficiency and reduced material usages. Bifacial solar cells may have a higher efficiency as light can enter from two directions and tandem solar cells may use a larger part of the incoming solar spectrum, increasing the efficiency.

  5. 4. Magnetron sputtering of transparent conducting tungsten doped indium oxide

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Solcellsteknik

    Author : Erica Evertsson; [2022]
    Keywords : sputtering; indium; TCO; tungsten; thin film; solar cell; IOW;

    Abstract : In thin film solar cells there is a front contact layer called TCO, transparent conducting oxide. This layer requires high conductivity and high transmittance. READ MORE

  6. 5. Intermediate layer contacts for tandem solar cells based on ALD SnO2

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för fysik och astronomi

    Author : Georgia Iona; [2021]
    Keywords : Ald; SnO2; tandem cell; solar cell; IML; intermediate layer;

    Abstract : In this project, samples with a metal/semiconductor/metal structure were fabricated and investigated with the potential application as the interconnecting layer of a tandem solar cell in mind. Degenerately doped p-Si and n-Si were used as bottom (metal like) contacts, as Si represents one of the most common materials for the bottom cell of tandem devices. READ MORE
