Nanoscale Rear‐Interface Architecture Enables 36.2 mA cm−2 Photocurrent in Ultrathin and Bifacial ACIGS Solar Cells Through Light Management

Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
An array of SiOx nanopillars is developed on ITO transparent rear contacts through nanoimprint lithography to promote light scattering in 500–600 nm bifacial ACIGS solar cells. This architecture increases the short‐circuit current density by 7.8 and 7.6 mA cm−2 under front (up to 36.2 mA cm−2) and rear illumination, respectively, offering a scalable ...

Microstructure and erosion characteristics of Ni-AlN thin films prepared by electrodeposition

Science and Engineering of Composite Materials, 2016
Ni-AlN thin films were successfully fabricated via direct-current (DC), pulse-current (PC), and ultrasonic-assisted pulse-current (UAPC) deposition. The microstructure, microhardness, and erosion characteristics of the Ni-AlN thin films were determined ...

Oberflächencharakterisierung auf atomarer Ebene: Vom Sehen einzelner Atome zum Verständnis chemischer Prozesse

Physik in unserer Zeit, EarlyView.
Sehen ist der erste Schritt in Richtung Verstehen. Dieses Prinzip gilt von der Beobachtung ferner Galaxien bis hin zur Untersuchung einzelner Atome und hält damit über viele Größenordnungen. Heutzutage ermöglichen moderne Mikroskope die Beobachtung einzelner Atome und sogar die gezielte Kontrolle chemischer Reaktionen einzelner Moleküle ...
