Nano-scale Optical Spectroscopy of PV Materials: Preprint

Description: Presented at the 2001 NCPV Program Review Meeting: Micro-PL, solid immersion lens microscopy, and near-field microscopy characterized the low-temperature PL of PV materials and devices with sub-micron spatial resolution. A variety of novel high-spatial resolution techniques, including micro-PL, solid immersion lens microscopy and near-field microscopy have been used to characterize the low-temperature photoluminescence of photovoltaic materials and devices with sub-micron spatial resolution. Th… more

Reconstruction and Energetics of the Polar (112) and ( 1 1 2 ) Versus the Non-Polar (220) Surfaces of CuInSe2: Preprint

Description: Presented at the 2001 NCPV Program Review Meeting: First-principles total-energy study of CIS reveals a number of (112) and (-1-1-2) surface structures stable at different atomic chemical potentials. First-principles total-energy study for CuInSe2 reveals a number of (112) and ({ovr 112}) surface structures stable at different atomic chemical potentials. This structure richness raises the possibility for engineering CIS/CIGS properties by surface control during the growth. The experimentally ob… more

Commercialization of CIS-Based Thin-Film PV: Annual Technical Report--Phase II, September 1999 - August 2000

Description: This report describes the objective to establish reliable high-throughput, high-yield thin-film deposition processes to make CIS a viable option for the next generation of photovoltaics. Outdoor testing, accelerated environmental testing, and packaging development progressed throughout all phases of this subcontract. Siemens scaled up substrate size and scaled up production capacity of the baseline SSI CIS-based module process while introducing CIS-based products. The primary goals of this subc… more
