Thin Films for Solar Cell Applications $114.71 Solar energy being the most important source of energy, several technologies have been developed for utilization of solar energy. Photovoltaic devices popularly known as solar cells convert solar energy into the electricity which is the most convenient form of energy. Hence thin film photovoltaic technologies are being developed. Thin film solar cell concept is being persued since the inception of photovoltaic devices. For making thin film solar cells many technologies such as CVD, Spray Pyrolysis, Glow Discharge, CBD, Electrodeposition, etc. have been used in the laboratories. The book proposes the simple Chemical Bath Deposition (CBD) technique for synthesizing thin films. The experimental results on synthesis and structural, optical, electrical properties of Cd(S, Se), CdZnS thin films and pCu2Se/nCuBiSe2 hetero junction thin films for solar cell applications by CBD are discussed. This book will be helpful for students, teachers and researchers for synthesis of thin films by using simple Chemical Bath Deposition technique. Author: Patil, Ganesh E./ H.

NonUniformities in ThinFilm Solar Cells and Modules $157.72 Thinfilm PV technology due to its fast production line, large area panels and low material usage, is one of the most promising lowcost technologies. Due to their granular structure, thinfilm solar cells are inherently nonuniform. Fluctuations inevitably occur during the multistep deposition process of large area thinfilm solar panels and specific manufacturing procedures. Furthermore, non uniformities can become more severe, or increase in size during the solarpanels life cycle. Non uniformities reduce the overall efficiency of solar cells and modules, and their effects therefore need to be well understood. This manuscript focuses on the analysis of the effect of nonuniformities on small size solar cells and modules with the help of numerical simulations. Even though the 2D model developed here can analyze the effect of nonuniformities of any nature, only two specific types of microscopic nonuniformities were addressed here: shunts and weakdiodes. One type of macroscopic nonuniformity, partial shading, was also addressed. The circuit model developed here is a network of diodes, currentsources, and transparentconductiveoxide resistors.

Manifold Microchannel Cooling of Photovoltaic Cells $111.53 Several works have been published on concentration of solar radiation by mirrors or lenses onto smaller size solar panels, which reduce cost and increase conversion efficiency at higher concentration ratio. One of the challenges is active and uniform cooling of high heat flux solar arrays, because conversion efficiency is dependent on device temperatures and drops with increasing temperature. This research is targeted at cooling of small, high concentrated solar cells. Benefits of manifold microchannel are attractive for cooling of electronic devices but have not been studied for cooling of high concentrated solar cells which is the objective of this research, where the microchannel can be microfabricated and etched on the backside of the silicon solar cell to form a sealed heat sink with the manifold fabricated in the silicon substrate. This design not only minimizes the pressure drop, but also maximizes the heat transfer and provides uniform temperature across the device.

Properties and Applications of Carbon Nanotube Films $134.33 Since 1950, the adage has been silicon for electronics, carbon for life. However, the discovery in 1993 of the singlewall carbon nanotube (SWNT), sparked interest in everyone from scientists to VCs over the electric potential of SWNTs, particularly for use in flexible or printable electronics. This book provides an overview of the fabrication, properties, and applications of thin films (networks) of SWNTs. Various aqueous phase dispersion and coating methods on rigid and flexible substrates will be explored. Fundamental transport studies on films of various densities, as a function of temperature and frequency, are fit to theory. Thin, transparent films of SWNTs (and graphene) are fabricated, and evaluated for use in applications that require a transparent electrode, such as touch screens, displays, and solar cells. Solution deposited films are made into FETs for the first demonstration of a transparent SWNT transistor. Finally, the photophysics of a porphyrin/SWNT composite are measured, and evaluated for possible uses as an artificial eye. This book should prove especially useful for professionals in the fields of nanotechnology and flexible electronics.
