Superimposed Sacrificial Texturing to Enhance the Optical Performance in Thin‐Film Solar Cells
Sacrificial texturing method using controlled etching of undoped zinc oxide and indium‐doped tin oxide generates microscale and nanoscale textures on glass. Roughness on two different scales is superimposed to create a new texture capable of broad‐spectrum scattering, which is utilised in thin‐film silicon solar cells to enhance optical performance ...

ABSTRACT The formation of a crystallized surface layer, having a lower coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) than the parent glass, can be exploited to place the glass surface under compression during cooling from crystallization temperature and hence improve mechanical properties.

High‐Refractive‐Index La2O3–Nb2O5–WO3 Ternary Glasses Prepared Using a Levitation Technique
ABSTRACT Colorless and transparent La2O3–Nb2O5–WO3 (LNW) glasses were successfully synthesized using a levitation technique in a wide glass‐forming region. These glasses exhibited excellent optical properties, including a high refractive index (>2.1) with low wavelength dispersion, and high transmittance (70%‒75% at a thickness of ∼800 µm) in the ...

Modeling of Physical–Chemical and Thermomechanical Properties of Glasses From Recycled Waste
ABSTRACT This research focuses on understanding the high‐temperature phase evolution occurring during the vitrification of heterogeneous construction and demolition wastes (CDWs). The aim of this project is to transform this widely distributed and mostly unused waste stream into a homogeneous, engineered, glass‐based material with predictable ...
