In this paper, the solar absorption level of PEDOT:PSS/Ge organic and inorganic hybrid solar cells (HSCs) with different parameters of cruciform microstructure (CM) is studied, using the finite-difference time domain (FDTD) method. The light absorption i...

An investigation on the photoelectrochemical and sensitizing properties of two different hybrid organic dyes, anchored as sensitizers on mesoporous TiO2, in Grätzel solar cells, is presented. Firstly, we studied the absorption properties of the C106 sens...

First-principles electronic band calculations were used to investigate the effects of alkali metals and organic cations added to Cu-based perovskite solar cells. The copper d-orbital band was slightly above the valence-band maximum and functioned as an a...

Crystallinity has played a major role in organic solar cells (OSCs). In small molecule (SM) bulk-heterojunction (BHJ) OSCs, the crystallinity and crystalline packing of SM donors have been shown to have a dramatic impact on the formation of an optimum mi...

CdTe solar cells were produced using metal organic chemical vapour deposition (MOCVD), which employed a (Zn,Al)S (AZS) high resistant transparent (HRT) layer at the transparent conducting oxide (TCO)/Cd(Zn)S emitter interface, to enable the higher anneal...

This work deals with the interfacial mixing mechanism of picoliter (pL)-scale droplets produced by sequential inkjet printing of organic-based inks onto ITO/PET surfaces at a moderately high Weber number (~101). Differently from solution dispensing proce...

Hot and arid areas are considered a harsh environment when it comes to cleaning photovoltaic (PV) modules. Minimizing the panel tilt angle makes it evident that dust and other substances such as airborne dirt (both organic and inorganic) and bird droppin...

During the last two decades, Dye Sensitized Solar Cells (DSSCs) have received a great deal of attention as a promising, low-cost alternative to conventional silicon photovoltaic devices. Natural dye molecules can be used as a sensitizer for their low cos...

The search for novel solar cell designs as an alternative to standard silicon solar cells is important for the future of renewable energy production. One such alternative design is the carbon nanotube/silicon (CNT/Si) heterojunction solar device. In orde...

To improve the hole-transport ability and photoelectric properties of perovskite solar cells, the ground-state geometry, frontier molecular orbital, and mobility of two organic molecules were investigated using density functional theory (DFT) with the Ma...
