Response of Schottky barrier solar cells at higher temperatures

Abstract

The responses of Cu/Cr-p-type silicon and Au-n-type silicon Schottky barrier solar cells at higher temperatures have been studied. The variations of different factors, such as intrinsic carrier density, energy gap, absorption coefficient, barrier height, effective number of photons etc., have been taken into account. The results show that in the temperature range 300-450K, except for the short-circuit current, all other factors (e.g. open-circuit voltage, fill-factor and conversion efficiency) decrease with increase in temperature.

Performance Analysis of Triple‐Cation Mixed‐Halide Bifacial Perovskite Solar Cell with 17% Rear and 25% Front Efficiency

“…Thus, bifacial devices that are relatively thin function better than those that are substantially thicker. These results support earlier findings [ 11,20 ] that have been published. There are serious defects in every material.…”

Reversible Temperature Dependence in Surface-Enhanced Raman Scattering of 1-Propanethiol Adsorbed on a Silver Island Film

“…Several parameters, namely, a , b , H , and α, are needed to calculate the EM enhancement factor ( R ). The molecular polarizability of 9.73 Å 3 for 1-propanethiol was taken from ref . An order of magnitude change in α did not seriously affect the calculated enhancement (∼1%), however.…”

Evidence of electronic phase arrest and glassy ferromagnetic behaviour in (Nd0.4Gd0.3)Sr0.3MnO3manganite: comparative study between bulk and nanometric samples

“…These parent compounds are known to be an excellent double exchange system with a non-magnetic A-site (La 3+ ). In many cases, it has been found that doping with rare earth ions influences and enhances the colossal magnetoresistive properties of the systems [3,8,13] besides having a strong effect on the other magnetic and electronic properties. However, most of the studies were performed on bulk manganite systems.…”
