Advanced Silicon Thin Films for High-Efficiency Silicon Heterojunction-Based Solar Cells
Descoeudres, A.; Allebe, C.; Badel, N.; Barraud, L.; Champliaud, J.; Christmann, G.; et al. (2017)The drop in passivation usually observed after the deposition of the p-doped amorphous silicon (a-Si:11) layer on top of the passivating intrinsic buffer a-Si:H layer during the fabrication of silicon heterojunction (SHJ) ... -
Direct Contact to TCO with SmartWire Connection Technology
Faes, A.; Curvat, L.; Li, H. Y.; Levrat, J.; Champliaud, J.; Thomas, K.; et al. (2018)Silicon heterojunction solar cells without metallization can be interconnected using SmartWire Connection Technology (SWCT). The module performances can be comparable to standard SWCT module and the electrical contact of ... -
Field test and electrode optimization of electrodynamic cleaning systems for solar panels
Faes, A.; Petri, D.; Champliaud, J.; Geissbuhler, J.; Badel, N.; Levrat, J.; et al. (2019)Soiling is the major cause of power loss of photovoltaics (PV) and concentrated solar power (CSP) in desert areas. Electrodynamic cleaning system (EDS) is an automatic and water-free integrated cleaning system for mirrors ... -
Low-temperature processes for passivation and metallization of high-efficiency crystalline silicon solar cells
Descoeudres, A.; Allebe, C.; Badel, N.; Barraud, L.; Champliaud, J.; Christmann, G.; et al. (2018)This paper reviews recent progress made at CSEM on the development of low-temperature processes for the fabrication of amorphous silicon-based passivated contacts and for the metallization of high-efficiency silicon ... -
Reassessment of Cell to Module Gains and Losses: Accounting for the Current Boost Specific to Cells Located on the Edges
Dupre, O.; Levrat, J.; Champliaud, J.; Despeisse, M.; Boccard, M.; Ballif, C. (2018)The power produced by a photovoltaic module is not simply the sum of the powers of its constituents cells. The difference stems from a number of so-called 'cell-to-module' (CTM) gain or loss mechanisms. These are getting ...
