Abstract

This paper presents the results of research on conductive layers dedicated to flexible photovoltaic cells based on semiconductors integrated with a textile substrate. The presented work is part of a broader project aimed at producing flexible solar cells based on the CdTe semiconductor component and manufactured directly on textiles. The research focuses on the selection of textile substrates and contact materials, as well as the methods of their application. This study compares three types of fabrics (basalt, glass, and silicone fibers) and three metals (copper, molybdenum, and silver), evaluating their mechanical and electrical properties. During the experiments, flexible metallic layers with a thickness ranging from 160 to 415 nm were obtained. Preliminary experiments indicated that metallic layers deposited directly on textiles do not provide adequate conductivity, reaching the levels of several hundred Ω/sq and necessitating the introduction of intermediate layers, such as screen-printed graphite. The results show that molybdenum layers on basalt fabrics exhibit the lowest increase in resistance after dynamic bending tests. The obtained relative resistance changes in Mo layers varied from 50% to as low as 5% after a complete set of 200 bending cycles. This article also discusses current challenges and future research directions in the field of textile-integrated photovoltaics, emphasizing the importance of further technological development to improve the energy efficiency and durability of such solutions.

Abstract

The paper presents research focused on the efficiency improvement of inorganic flexible thin-film solar cells, using energy converting layers. The light capture enhancement was achieved through the introduction of layers based on rare-earth elements, as top coatings on the amorphous silicon photovoltaic structures. Such luminescent layers are converting high-energy photons into low-energy ones, which are more efficient in photovoltaic conversion of the investigated solar cells. Towards this goal, powders consisting rare-earth elements were applied as active particles in polymer layer. For practical experiments, the screen-printing method, as a cheap, reliable and industrially-ready technology was used for layers deposition. For the experiments two compositions were selected: Sr4Al14O25: Eu,Dy (BGL-300M) and SrAl2O4: Eu,Dy (G-300M). These materials are characterized by excellent thermal and optical stability and interesting luminescent properties (they absorb ultraviolet and emit in the visible range). For the verification of investigated materials and methods, various compositions of powders and proportions were tested and analyzed.

Abstract

[ES] El tema del proyecto es Eficacia Energética en Ciudades inteligentes . El objetivo del proyecto fue el de estudiar la posible la mejora de Łódź, ciudad polaca donde se ha realizado el mismo, a ciudad inteligente. Una ciudad inteligente es aquella que manifiesta un desarrollo urbano basado en la sostenibilidad capaz de responder de forma efectiva a las necesidades de la ciudadanía, empresas e instituciones. El proyecto ha sido realizado por cuatro alumnos de diferentes países. Para afianzar conceptos, mayormente eléctricos, se realizaron varios experimentos relacionados con paneles solares y aerogeneradores al inicio del proyecto. La siguiente parte consistió en encontrar el problema principal de la ciudad. Para ello, se aplicó el llamado métido Design Thinking . Este método consta de cinco partes: Empatizar, Definir, Idear, Prototipos y Pruebas. En la primera parte, empatizar, se decidió que la mejor forma de encontrar el problema sería preguntando al ciudadano de a pie. Se hicieron entrevistas a gente de diversas edades de forma aleatoria en la calle. La gente transmitió al grupo que el mayor problema para los ciudadanos es el enorme volumen de tráfico y sus atascos. Este problema también se puede relacionar con la efectividad energética. Mayor número de atascos implica mayor gasto de combustible, emisiones de calor, ruido y gases contaminantes. Por lo tanto, en este escenario la energía no se emplea de forma efectiva. En la etapa definir, se estableció el problema principal de la ciudad, los atascos. Se creó un personaje ficticio cuya edad y costumbres correspondían con una persona joven que necesita acceder a diario a la universidad atravesando el centro de la ciudad. En la fase Idear , la solución debería cumplir con las necesidades de este personaje previamente mencionado. Se llegó a la conclusión de que el tráfico en el centro debería ser reducido, implementando restricciones al tráfico combinadas con un nuevo sistema de coches eléctricos de uso

Abstract

International audience; We demonstrate white light emission from rare earth (RE)-free ZnO nanopowders and layers (undoped or doped with semiconducting and metallic ions) and RE–doped oxides (SrAl2O4:Eu,Dy and Sr4Al14O25:Eu,Dy) for comparison. The RE-free ZnO-based nanopowders and RE-based oxides exhibit white light emission, maintaining a high value of photoluminescent quantum efficiency (PL QE). It is noteworthy that the high PL QE value is obtained for a material without RE and that the broad light emission can be tuned by or the amount or valence of the incorporated metallic ion. We propose the use of these phosphors in a novel organic-inorganic white-light-emitting device in combination with a solid state UV light-emitting source.

Abstract

International audience; Zinc oxide nanoparticles (NPs) have aroused an increasing interest for their potential application in the white light sources and as energy conversion material due to the variety of intrinsic defects which permit to generate a wide emission spectrum from the blue to the IR range. However, the origin of these emissions remains still unclear and the precise control of the defects quantity is a challenging task. Because of the easy and adjustable synthesis condition, sol-gel methods have been applied to synthesize ZnO NPs. The nanoparticle size, morphology, crystalline quality and the zeta potential have been controlled via the modification of the synthesis parameters (the nature of solvent, the presence of the additives and of the surfactants and the reaction time). Since all these synthesis parameters play a major role in the introduction of defects into the structure of ZnO NPs, the defect emission spectrum range and the luminescent efficiency can be controlled. The intense visible emission with a luminescent external quantum efficiency (EQE) of more than 50 % (and up to 70 %) was attained by controlling the crystalline order of ZnO NPs. The hydroxyl group present on the surface of the ZnO NPs turned out to influence their crystalline quality and dispersibility. The influence of ZnO NPs used as energy down-shifting layer on the efficiency of various types of solar cells is also presented.

Abstract

Treball desenvolupat dins el marc del programa 'European Project Semester'., This report is for the EPS project “Creative photovoltaic applications”. It was assigned to develop a product that uses photovoltaics. Some of the objectives to this project were: creating a report, developing an innovative product, and creating a company. The primary guide for this project was the design thinking methodology. A survey was also utilized in an attempt to identify outsider’s opinions of photovoltaics and how they could be applied to their lives. The survey, with a total of 60 participants from a large variety of backgrounds, provided a consensus of how people viewed solar cells. The majority of people had problems with charging their phones while being outside. After a trial and error phase of brainstorming many products and their viabilities, the topic finally agreed upon was a solar umbrella. This product that attaches quickly and easily to the umbrella can be used basically anywhere a person would simultaneously want sun protection and immediate access to a charging device. The next phase was to purchase the parts and assemble the product. It was difficult to acquire all the parts necessary for completion of the product, as many are far from standard order, such as: a custom 3D printed device to attach to the top, a power bank capable of charging the device and distributing electricity at the same time, and also a DC/DC converter able to convert energy to the right voltage. At this point in time, a report, product, and company were created. The issues were solved using the design thinking methodology. The solar umbrella product is inexpensive and easy to use, created to pander to outdoor enthusiasts.

Abstract

Commercially available solar cells (e.g. CdS/CdTe, CIGS, c-Si) have a spectrally narrow absorption band when compared to the solar emission spectrum. The UV-wavelength response of a solar cell (SC) can be improved by the application of a luminescent down-shifting layer (LDSL) on the SC front side, permitting the conversion of short-wavelength photons to the longer wavelength photons better matching the SC's absorption spectrum. The ideal down-shifting material must possess a large Stokes shift and have a high luminescence quantum yield. We propose the use of the LDSL containing ZnO nanoparticles of less than 5 nm in diameter able to absorb UV light (λ < 400 nm), where the solar cell spectral response (SR) is low, and re-emitting at longer wavelengths (λ > 425 nm), where the typical SC's SR increases. ZnO nanoparticles were synthesized by a low energy cluster beam deposition (LECBD) technique and their luminescent properties were studied as a function of the oxygen partial pressure (OPP) applied during the deposition process. The stoichiometry and crystallinity of ZnO nanoparticles can be controlled via the adjustment of the OPP. It was also observed that there exists an optimal value of the oxygen pressure introduced during the LECBD process, which permits to obtain the highest visible photoluminescence emission, necessary for an efficient down-shifting. The yield of the down-shifting in ZnO nanoparticle layer was determined varying the excitation wavelength using the photoluminescence excitation technique. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

The paper presents the investigation into a possible new photovoltaic (PV) application of carbon nanotube-based elastic layers, manufactured by a screen-printing technique. The optical and mechanical properties of these layers are investigated and compared with ITO, standard transparent conductive oxide utilized in photovoltaic devices. Simulations of new TCO layer functioning in various solar constructions are performed. Finally, first results of a test silicon cell, contacted by proposed material, are reported.

Abstract

Treball desenvolupat dins el marc del programa 'European Project Semester'. This report is for the EPS project “Creative photovoltaic applications”. It was assigned to develop a product that uses photovoltaics. Some of the objectives to this project were: creating a report, developing an innovative product, and creating a company. The primary guide for this project was the design thinking methodology. A survey was also utilized in an attempt to identify outsider’s opinions of photovoltaics and how they could be applied to their lives. The survey, with a total of 60 participants from a large variety of backgrounds, provided a consensus of how people viewed solar cells. The majority of people had problems with charging their phones while being outside. After a trial and error phase of brainstorming many products and their viabilities, the topic finally agreed upon was a solar umbrella. This product that attaches quickly and easily to the umbrella can be used basically anywhere a person would simultaneously want sun protection and immediate access to a charging device. The next phase was to purchase the parts and assemble the product. It was difficult to acquire all the parts necessary for completion of the product, as many are far from standard order, such as: a custom 3D printed device to attach to the top, a power bank capable of charging the device and distributing electricity at the same time, and also a DC/DC converter able to convert energy to the right voltage. At this point in time, a report, product, and company were created. The issues were solved using the design thinking methodology. The solar umbrella product is inexpensive and easy to use, created to pander to outdoor enthusiasts.
