NEW APPLICATIONS FOR CPV'S: A FAST WAY TO IMPROVE RELIABILITY AND TECHNOLOGY PROGRESS (NACIR)
Start date: Jan 1, 2009, End date: Dec 31, 2012,
...sible sources of failure in new environments outside Europe, in order to assure component reliability. The proposed project will also try to improve the current technology of the industrial partners (ISOFOTON and CONCENTRIX) by accelerating the learning curve that CPV must follow in order to reach the competitive market, and lowering the cost under the current flat panel PV significantly within 3- ...

Improve Photovoltaic efficiency by applying novel effects at the limits of light to matter interaction (LIMA)
Start date: Jan 1, 2010, End date: Dec 31, 2012,
The LIMA project exploits cutting edge photonic technologies to enhance silicon solar cell efficiencies with new concepts in nanostructured materials. It proposes nano-structured surface layers designed to increase light absorption in the solar cell while decreasing surface and interface recombination loss. Integration in a back contact design further reduces these interface losses and avoids s ...

Thin Si film based hybrid solar cells on low-cost substrates (ThinSi)
Start date: Jan 1, 2010, End date: Dec 31, 2012,
The ThinSi project will develop a solar cell processing chain for high throughput, cost-effective manufacturing of thin film silicon based solar cells on low-cost silicon substrates. The substrates will be made on the basis of an innovative powder-to-substrate concept. In line with the Workprogramme topic addressed, it will reduce the cost of solar cell modules compared to those made by the conven ...

Modelling of interfaces for high performance solar cell materials (HiperSol)
Start date: Dec 1, 2009, End date: Nov 30, 2012,
The resistance at the metal contact-semiconductor interface and recombination at the passivating layer-semiconductor interface are two important bottlenecks for improving the performance of current solar cells. These processes are quantum mechanical by nature, but so far most studies and attempts to improve the properties of solar cells have been at the device scale. A main reason for this is the ...
