Nanocrystalline Silicon Oxide in Silicon Heterojunction Solar Cells

, 2018
To advance the contribution of photovoltaic (PV) systems in a transition towards fully sustainable energy generation, the costs of the associated systems need to decrease. In particular, a constant evolution of their solar energy conversion efficiency ($\eta$) is an effective way to reduce the overall costs of the energy production of a solar cell.

Spectral sensitivity of graphene/silicon heterojunction photodetectors [PDF]

Solid-State Electronics, 2016
We have studied the optical properties of two-dimensional (2D) Schottky photodiode heterojunctions made of chemical vapor deposited (CVD) graphene on n- and p-type Silicon (Si) substrates. Much better rectification behavior is observed from the diodes fabricated on n- Si substrates in comparison with the devices on p-Si substrates in dark condition ...
