摘要:
A method of making a non-toxic perovskite/inorganic thin-film tandem solar cell including the steps of depositing a textured oxide buffer layer on an inexpensive substrate, depositing a metal-inorganic film from a eutectic alloy on the buffer layer; and depositing perovskite elements on the metal-inorganic film, thus forming a perovskite layer based on a metal from the metal-inorganic film, incorporating the metal into the perovskite layer.
摘要:
Inexpensive semiconductors are produced by depositing a single crystal or large grained silicon on an inexpensive substrate. These semiconductors are produced at low enough temperatures such as temperatures below the melting point of glass. Semiconductors produced are suitable for semiconductor devices such as photovoltaics or displays
摘要:
A method is disclosed for making semiconductor films from a eutectic alloy comprising a metal and a semiconductor. Through heterogeneous nucleation said film is deposited at a deposition temperature on relatively inexpensive buffered substrates, such as glass. Specifically said film is vapor deposited at a fixed temperature in said deposition temperature where said deposition temperature is above a eutectic temperature of said eutectic alloy and below a temperature at which the substrate softens. Such films could have widespread application in photovoltaic and display technologies.
摘要:
Architectures for tandem solar cell including two thin films forming a top layer and a bottom layer. Such cells can be bi-facial. Exemplary materials used for the top layer are CIGS (CGS), perovskites (Sn and Ge), amorphous silicon (a-Si), copper oxide, tin sulfide, CZTS and III-V materials. For the bottom layer an inorganic film such as either silicon or germanium may be used. In general, the architecture includes of a glass, plastic or metal substrate and a buffer layer, either an oxide insulator or nitride conductor.

A bi-facial tandem solar cell and a method of making a non-toxic perovskite/inorganic thin-film tandem solar cell stable, having matching bandgaps and a hysteresis free design including the steps of depositing a textured oxide buffer layer on an inexpensive substrate, depositing a metal-inorganic film from a eutectic alloy on the buffer layer; and depositing perovskite elements on the metal-inorganic film, thus forming a perovskite layer based on a metal from the metal-inorganic film, incorporating the metal into the perovskite layer wherein said perovskite layer is stable, hysteresis-free, and has a bandgap that matches the bandgap of the metal-inorganic.
摘要:
A semiconductor assembly including substantially non-crystalline substrate having a predetermined softening point, a textured buffer layer deposited on said substrate, a polymer film deposited on said buffer layer, and an inorganic or silicon inorganic film deposited on said polymer film. The buffer layer, polymer film, and inorganic or silicon inorganic film are each deposited at a respective deposition temperature that is below the softening point of the substrate. A method is disclosed for making a hybrid solar cell comprising organic and inorganic materials on an inexpensive substrate, such as glass. The materials are deposited on the substrate at low temperatures using eutectics and crystalline buffer layers such as MgO and Al2O3. Such a device can also be used for OLETs (organic light emitting transistors) and OLEDs (organic light emitting diodes) used in displays.

摘要:
A method is provided for making smooth crystalline semiconductor thin-films and hole and electron transport films for solar cells and other electronic devices. Such semiconductor films have an average roughness of 3.4 nm thus allowing for effective deposition of additional semiconductor film layers such as perovskites for tandem solar cell structures which require extremely smooth surfaces for high quality device fabrication.
摘要:
A simple manufacturing method is provided for the fabrication of the IV-VI group of semiconductor films on inexpensive substrates for highly efficient tandem or multi junction solar cells and a variety of other electronic devices such as transistors and LEDs. Specifically, the method includes depositing a textured oxide buffer on a substrate; depositing a metal-inorganic film from a eutectic alloy on the buffer layer, the metal being a component of a IV-VI compound; and forming a layer on the metal-inorganic film on which an additional element from the IV-VI compound is added, forming a IV-VI layer on a semiconductor device. The films comprising tin sulfides—SnS (tin sulphide), SnS2, and SnS3—are grown on inexpensive substrates, such as glass or flexible plastic, at low temperature, allowing for R2R (roll-to-roll) processing.
