The aim of this thesis is to supply a theoretical study of the interaction mechanisms between quantum dots beyond the simple picture of macroatoms. Coulomb interaction between excitons, exciton-phonon interaction as well as radiative interaction are, in pa ...

To further lower production costs and increase conversion efficiency of thin-film silicon solar modules, challenges are the deposition of high-quality microcrystalline silicon (μc-Si:H) at an increased rate and on textured substrates that guarantee efficie ...

In Thin Film Silicon (TF-Si) solar cells light harvesting schemes must guarantee an efficient light trapping in the thin absorber layers without decreasing the silicon layers quality and consecutively the p-i-n diodes electrical performance. TF-Si solar ce ...

Hydrogenated microcrystalline silicon (μc-Si:H) growth by very high frequency plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (VHF-PECVD) is studied in an industrial-type parallel plate KAI reactor. Combined plasma and material characterization techniques allow ...

The use of intrinsic silicon oxide as a buffer layer at the p-i interface of thin-film silicon solar cells is shown to provide significant advantages. For microcrystalline silicon solar cells, when associated with highly crystalline i-layers deposited at h ...

This short communication highlights our latest results towards high-efficiency microcrystalline silicon single-junction solar cells. By combining adequate cell design with high-quality material, a new world record efficiency was achieved for single-junctio ...

The present invention relates to a multiple-junction photoelectric device comprising, in sequence, a substrate (4), a first conducting layer (2), at least two elementary photoelectric devices (6, 10), at least one of said elementary photoelectric devices ( ...
