In this paper,we demonstrate semi-transparent polymer solar cells employing a transpar-ent cathode con?guration,made of cesium carbonate (Cs 2CO 3)/silver (Ag)/indium tin oxide (ITO),which exhibited high transmittance in the visible regime.The device performance of the semi-transparent devices was signi?cantly improved after thermal post-annealing and incorporating an Al counter-electrode (CE)grid.Further,the short-circuit current density increased almost linearly with the incident light intensity,suggesting ef?cient charge col-lection ability of the transparent cathode.Overall,the semi-transparent polymer solar cell exhibits a remarkable power conversion ef?ciency of 2.09%.

Recently the interest in organic photovoltaic devices (OPVs)has risen steadily owing to their unique properties,such as light weight,low cost,and mechanical ?exibility [1,2].The power conversion ef?ciency (PCE)of OPVs based on the concept of bulk heterojunction has been achieved up to $5%[2–4].To achieve high device performance,ef?-cient absorption of solar radiation is one of the major con-cerns.However,the use of a thicker active layer to enhance the light absorption is limited by the short diffusion length of excitions and the low mobility of charge carriers [5,6].One possible solution is to fabricate a highly transparent OPV [6–8]and to ultimately stack with the other conven-tional cell,thereby absorbing more solar radiation by the multiple active layers in the multiple-device structure.The concept of such ‘‘stacked”cells has been reported by Shrotriya et al.[6].Furthermore,OPVs with high transpar-ency could be also applied onto other interesting applica-tions,such as power-generating windows [8].

An ideal transparent cathode for stacked devices must simultaneously have high ef?ciency of electron collection and high transparency [6].For many organic electronics,an ultra-thin interlayer is usually inserted between the or-ganic active layer and the metal cathode to enhance elec-tron injection and to reduce the contact resistance.For example,LiF is commonly used in organic light-emitting diodes [9,10].Additionally,cesium carbonate (Cs 2CO 3)has been recently reported to be another promising inter-layer material [11–15].In this work,we demonstrated a transparent cathode structure,Cs 2CO 3/silver (Ag)/indium tin oxide (ITO),for achieving semi-transparent polymer solar cells.In comparison with the LiF/Al con?guration,Cs 2CO 3/Ag possesses several advantages.First,unlike LiF,the function of Cs 2CO 3is relatively insensitive to the choice of the cathode metal [14,15],allowing us to use Ag instead of Al as the conductor.Further,Ag is more environmentally

stable than Al.From the other view point of optical proper-ties,the skin depth of Ag($13nm)is longer than that of Al ($7nm)in the visible range.As a result,a thicker Ag?lm can be deposited to reduce the sheet resistance without compromising the light transmittance.In addition,the thicker Ag?lm can also provide more effective protection of the polymer?lms from the damage caused by ITO sputtering.

The devices were fabricated on patterned indium tin oxide(ITO)-glass substrates.After cleaning,the ITO glass was dried in an oven and then treated with UV-ozone.By spin coating,the substrates were covered with a thin layer of poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrenesulfo-nate)(PEDOT:PSS),and were subsequently baked at 120°C for1h.The active layer,consisting of poly(3-hexyl thiophene)(P3HT)and[6,6]-phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester(PCBM)dissolved in1,2-dichlorobenzene (DCB)with a weight ratio of1:1,was spin-coated on the top of PEDOT:PSS.The polymer blend was thermally an-nealed at110°C for15min.To complete the device,an ul-tra-thin interlayer of Cs2CO3($1nm)and Ag were thermally evaporated under a vacuum of$6?10à6torr, sequentially,and?nally capped by rf sputtered ITO.The ITO sputtering was conducted at a power of50W under Ar atmosphere(3?10à3torr).The optimization of the thicknesses of Ag and ITO is quite crucial,since there was a trade-off between the sheet resistance and the transmit-tance of the electrode.After trying various thicknesses of Ag and ITO,it was found that the optimum thicknesses for Ag and ITO were7nm and100nm,respectively.In or-der to reduce the sheet resistance of the transparent cath-ode,a60-nm thick Al counter-electrode(CE)grid was incorporated by thermal evaporation.The areas of the CE grid and the overall device de?ned through various sha-dow masks were0.6mm2(0.12mm?5mm)and12mm2 (2mm?6mm),respectively.The detailed schematic illus-tration for the device structure is presented in Fig.1.For some devices,the thermal post-annealing at140°C for 5min was further performed in the glove box.The current density–voltage(J–V)characteristics of the devices were measured utilizing a Keithley2400source-measure unit. The photocurrent was obtained under illumination from a150W Thermal Oriel solar simulator(AM1.5G).The illu-mination intensity was calibrated using a standard Si pho-todiode with a KG-5?lter(Hamamatsu,Inc.)[16].The transmittance of the transparent cathode was measured using a Perkin Elmer Lamda950ultraviolet/visible/near infrared spectrometer.

Fig.2shows the J–V characteristics of the polymer solar cells under illumination in this work.The open-circuit voltage(V oc),short-circuit current density(J sc)and?ll factor(FF)of the as-made semi-transparent OPV(Device I)with a structure of ITO/PEDOT:PSS/P3HT:PCBM/Cs2CO3/ Ag(7nm)/ITO(100nm)were0.45V, 3.72mA/cm2,and 23.24%,respectively,resulting in a PCE of0.39%.The poor performance of the semi-transparent device was probably due to the physical damage of the polymer blends caused by ITO sputtering as well as the relatively high sheet resis-tance of the cathode(Ag/ITO).Nevertheless,after Device I was post-annealed at140°C for5min,the device perfor-mance was dramatically improved(Device II in Fig.2).In fact,post-annealing has been proposed to enhance the de-vice performance of OPVs by several research groups [3,17–19].Since no obvious variation in absorption was observed after the post-annealing treatment,we also attri-bute the enhanced PCE to the improvement of the organ-ics/cathode interface as well as the increased charge mobility[3,17–19].

To understand the nature of charge transport in OPVs, the J sc dependence on the incident light intensity(P in) was further studied.Fig.3a clearly shows that the J sc fol-lowed a power-law dependence,J sc/(P in)s.After the post-annealing treatment,the exponential factor(s)de-duced from the linear?t to the experimental data rose from0.71to0.86.However,this value is still a little lower than that of the device with Cs2CO3/Ag(100nm)cathode (s=0.95,not shown here).This is probably due to the rel-atively higher sheet resistance of the cathode(Ag/ITO).

order to overcome this problem,an Al counter-electrode (CE)grid with 5%shadow fraction was utilized to reduce the sheet resistance of the cathode.After incorporating the CE grid (Device III),the FF of the semi-transparent OPV was notably improved,yielding a PCE of 2.09%(Device III in Fig.2).Furthermore,the exponential factor was also raised to 0.94,indicating the absence of space charges in the devices [20,21].This assumption can be further con-?rmed from the dependence of the ef?ciency on the illumi-nation intensity (Fig.3b).Unlike Device I or Device II,which showed a negative correlation once the intensity was larger than 30mW/cm 2,Device III exhibited rather stable ef?ciencies at higher intensities.The incident photo-to-electron conversion ef?ciency (IPCE)curves for the four devices are also depicted in Fig.4.Device III,as ex-pected,exhibited higher IPCE than Device I or II.It is worth noticing that the PCE of Device III can be further improved to 2.83%by placing an Ag mirror behind the device while illuminating (Device IV).The improved PCE is believed to be attributed to the reduced photo loss through the trans-parent cathode.This somehow explained why the semi-transparent OPVs are typically inferior to conventional de-vices with thick metals as the cathodes.All the photovol-taic characteristics are summarized in Table 1.

Fig.5displays the transmittance spectrum of the Cs 2CO 3/Ag(7nm)/ITO(100nm)transparent cathode.As

shown in Fig.5,the transparent cathode exhibited high transmittance ($70%)in the visible regime.Further,we noted that the incorporation of a 5%CE grid did not signif-icantly diminish the transparency.Assuming that the CE grid is completely opaque,the simulated transmittance spectrum for the transparent cathode with an Al CE grid (T simu.)can be obtained by the following relationship:T simu.=T mea.?(1às s ),where s s is the area fraction of the CE grid (s s =0.05in our case).As a consequence,with the help of the CE grid,the PCE of semi-transparent OPVs

can

be signi?cantly enhanced without dramatically sacri?cing the overall transmittance.This is of much importance for some applications,such as stacked cells or tandem cells.

In conclusion,we demonstrated semi-transparent poly-mer solar cells comprising a Cs2CO3/Ag/ITO structure as the transparent cathode.We also found that the device perfor-mance of the semi-transparent OPVs can be signi?cantly improved through the post-annealing treatment.Further, with the help of the Al CE grid,the semi-transparent OPV exhibited a power conversion ef?ciency of2.09%.

(Discuss) This article may require cleanup to meet Wikipedia's quality standards. Please improve this article if you can. (June 2007) A photovoltaic module is composed of individual PV cells. This crystalline-silicon module has an aluminium frame and glass on the front. In the field of photovoltaics, a photovoltaic module or photovoltaic panel is a packaged interconnected assembly of photovoltaic cells, also known as solar cells. An installation of photovoltaic modules or panels is known as a photovoltaic array. Photovoltaic cells typically require protection from the environment. For cost and practicality reasons a number of cells are connected electrically and packaged in a photovoltaic module, while a collection of these modules that are mechanically fastened together, wired, and designed to be a field-installable unit, sometimes with a glass covering and a frame and backing made of metal, plastic or fiberglass, are known as a photovoltaic panel or simply solar panel. A photovoltaic installation typically includes an array of photovoltaic modules or panels, an inverter, batteries (for off grid) and interconnection wiring.

Ultra-High Ef?ciency Photovoltaic Cells for Large Scale Solar Power Generation Yoshiaki Nakano Abstract The primary targets of our project are to dras-tically improve the photovoltaic conversion ef?ciency and to develop new energy storage and delivery technologies. Our approach to obtain an ef?ciency over40%starts from the improvement of III–V multi-junction solar cells by introducing a novel material for each cell realizing an ideal combination of bandgaps and lattice-matching.Further improvement incorporates quantum structures such as stacked quantum wells and quantum dots,which allow higher degree of freedom in the design of the bandgap and the lattice strain.Highly controlled arrangement of either quantum dots or quantum wells permits the coupling of the wavefunctions,and thus forms intermediate bands in the bandgap of a host material,which allows multiple photon absorption theoretically leading to a conversion ef?ciency exceeding50%.In addition to such improvements, microfabrication technology for the integrated high-ef?-ciency cells and the development of novel material systems that realizes high ef?ciency and low cost at the same time are investigated. Keywords Multi-junctionáQuantum welláConcentratoráPhotovoltaic INTRODUCTION Large-scale photovoltaic(PV)power generation systems, that achieve an ultra-high ef?ciency of40%or higher under high concentration,are in the spotlight as a new technology to ease drastically the energy problems.Mul-tiple junction(or tandem)solar cells that use epitaxial crystals of III–V compound semiconductors take on the active role for photoelectric energy conversion in such PV power generation systems.Because these solar cells operate under a sunlight concentration of5009to10009, the cost of cells that use the epitaxial crystal does not pose much of a problem.In concentrator PV,the increased cost for a cell is compensated by less costly focusing optics. The photons shining down on earth from the sun have a wide range of energy distribution,from the visible region to the infrared region,as shown in Fig.1.Multi-junction solar cells,which are laminated with multilayers of p–n junctions con?gured by using materials with different band gaps,show promise in absorbing as much of these photons as possible,and converting the photon energy into elec-tricity with minimum loss to obtain high voltage.Among the various types of multi-junction solar cells,indium gallium phosphide(InGaP)/gallium arsenide(GaAs)/ger-manium(Ge)triple-junction cells that make full use of the relationship between band gaps and diverse lattice con-stants offered by compound semiconductors have the advantage of high conversion ef?ciency because of their high-quality single crystal with a uniform-size crystal lat-tice.So far,a conversion ef?ciency exceeding41%under conditions where sunlight is concentrated to an intensity of approximately5009has been reported. The tunnel junction with a function equivalent to elec-trodes is inserted between different materials.The positive holes accumulated in the p layer and the electrons in the adjacent n layer will be recombined and eliminated in the tunnel junction.Therefore,three p–n junctions consisting of InGaP,GaAs,and Ge will become connected in series. The upper limit of the electric current is set by the mini-mum value of photon?ux absorbed by a single cell.On the other hand,the sum of voltages of three cells make up the voltage. As shown in Fig.1,photons that can be captured in the GaAs middle cell have a small?ux because of the band gap of each material.As a result,the electric current output AMBIO2012,41(Supplement2):125–131 DOI10.1007/s13280-012-0267-4

越南光伏和太阳能电力的发展

TECH MONITOR z Nov-Dec 2009 29 Photovoltaic technology and solar energy development in Viet Nam Trinh Qung Dung Viet Nam has potential solar energy for sustainable development. The year-round high solar radiation of 5.2 kWh/m 2 per day is a basic factor to develop solar electricity on an industrial scale for Viet Nam. New technologies not only allow solar electricity produced to be fed to the grid, but also guarantee sustainable local power supply at low prices. In the face of increasing demand and market for power, exploitation of Viet Nam’ renewable energy sources is very urgent. A mega solar programme for long-term sustainable energy development is under preparation, and it will be submitted for the government’s approval,after discussion in a Joint Ministerial Meeting. Solar radiation in Viet Nam olar radiation is a very important natural resource in Viet Nam. At an average total solar radiation of about 5 kW/h/m 2/day in most of the middle and the southern provinces and about 4 kW/h/m 2/day in the north-ern provinces, solar radiation is better in Viet Nam than in most other parts of the world (Dung, 2005). Below the 17th parallel, the radiation is not only plentiful but also steady for most part of the year, reducing about 20 per cent from dry season to rainy season.1 The solar energy potential is estimated at 43.9 billon tonnes of oil equivalent (TOE) per year. Figure 1 shows the average total solar radiation in Hanoi,Danang and Ho Chi Minh (HCM) city,which are typical for the northern, mid-dle and southern regions of Viet Nam.The average solar radiation is better in the middle and southern regions.The northern provinces receive poor sunshine in the first quarter of the year;there are only two hours or less of sun-shine during January, February and March and the average solar radiation is 50-60 per cent less. The average sunshine hours per year in the North-eastern zone range between 1,500and 1,700 hours, while the Southern and Central Viet Nam clocks between 2,000 and 2,600 sunshine hours per year. These data, measured over a period of 10 years, were taken from the weather station at HCM City. 1 In North Viet Nam, the solar radiation is not continuous in winter and autumn.

Photovoltaic Power Generation

PHOTOVOLTAIC POWER GENERATION ABSTRACT This report is an overview of photovoltaic power generation. The purpose of the report is to provide the reader with a general understanding of photovoltaic power generation and how PV technology can be practically applied. There is a brief discussion of early research and a description of how photovoltaic cells convert sunlight to electricity. The report covers concentrating collectors, flat-plate collectors, thin-film technology, and building-integrated systems. The discussion of photovoltaic cell types includes single-crystal, poly-crystalline, and thin-film materials. The report covers progress in improving cell efficiencies, reducing manufacturing cost, and finding economic applications of photovoltaic technology. Lists of major manufacturers and organizations are included, along with a discussion of market trends and projections. The conclusion is that photovoltaic power generation is still more costly than conventional systems in general. However, large variations in cost of conventional electrical power, and other factors, such as cost of distribution, create situations in which the use of PV power is economically sound. PV power is used in remote applications such as communications, homes and villages in developing countries, water pumping, camping, and boating. Grid-connected applications such as electric utility generating facilities and residential rooftop installations make up a smaller but more rapidly expanding segment of PV use. Furthermore, as technological advances narrow the cost gap, more applications are becoming economically feasible at an accelerating rate. INTRODUCTION This report is the result of Gale Greenleaf’s October 19, 1998 request for proposal. Bill Louk and Tom Penick responded to her request with a proposal, dated October 30, 1998, to continue earlier research on photovoltaic power generation. The proposal was approved and resulted in continued research followed by a presentation on November 30, 1998 and this final report on photovoltaic power generation. PHOTOVOLTAIC TECHNOLOGY Scientists have known of the photovoltaic effect for more than 150 years. Photovoltaic power generation was not considered practical until the arrival of the space program. Early satellites needed a source of electrical power and any solution was expensive. The development of solar cells for this purpose led to their eventual use in other applications.

光伏英文介绍

The basic principle of photovoltaic power generation 1. The composition of a solar photovoltaic system Solar photovoltaic power generation systems are mainly composed of solar photovoltaic cells, photovoltaic system battery controllers, batteries and AC and DC inverters. The core components are photovoltaic cells and controllers. The role of each component in the system is: Photovoltaic cells: photoelectric conversion. Controller: Process control that acts on the entire system. There are many types of controllers used in photovoltaic power generation systems, such as 2-point controllers, multi-channel sequence controllers, intelligent controllers, high-power tracking charge controllers, etc. Most of the controllers currently used in China are simple controllers, intelligent. The controller is only used in communication systems and larger photovoltaic power plants. Battery: A battery is a key component in a photovoltaic system that stores the power converted from a photovoltaic cell. At present, there is no dedicated battery for photovoltaic systems in China, but a conventional lead-acid battery is used. AC-DC inverter: Since its function is AC-DC conversion, the most important indicators of this component are reliability and conversion efficiency. The grid-connected inverter adopts the maximum power tracking technology to maximize the power converted by the photovoltaic cells into the grid. Solar photovoltaic panels: Solar cells mainly use single crystal silicon as a material. A single crystal silicon is used to make a P-N junction similar to that in a diode. The principle of operation is similar to that of a diode. Only in the diode, it is the external electric field that pushes the holes and electrons of the P-N junction, and the solar photon and the radiant heat (*) that push and influence the hole and electron motion of the P-N junction in the solar cell. This is also known as the principle of photovoltaic effect. At present, the efficiency of photoelectric conversion, that is, the efficiency of photovoltaic cells is about 13%-15% of monocrystalline silicon and 11%-13% of polycrystalline silicon. The latest technology also includes photovoltaic thin film batteries. 3. Classification of solar photovoltaic systems: At present, solar photovoltaic power generation systems can be roughly divided into three categories, off-grid photovoltaic power storage systems, photovoltaic grid-connected power generation systems, and the first two hybrid systems. A) Off-grid photovoltaic storage system. This is a common way of solar energy application. It has been used in domestic and foreign countries for several years. The system is relatively simple and adaptable. The range of use is limited only because of the large volume and maintenance difficulties of a series of types of batteries. B) Photovoltaic grid-connected power generation system, when the power load is large, the solar power is insufficient to purchase electricity from the city power. When the load is small, or when the power is not used, the excess power can be sold to the utility. Under the premise of backing up the grid, the system eliminates the
