Journal ArticleDOI
HITTM cells—high-efficiency crystalline Si cells with novel structure
Mikio Taguchi,Kunihiro Kawamoto,Sadaji Tsuge,Toshiaki Baba,Hitoshi Sakata,Masashi Morizane,Kenji Uchihashi,Noboru Nakamura,Seiichi Kiyama,Osamu Oota +9 more
TL;DR: Sanyo et al. as discussed by the authors improved the junction properties of the a-Si/c-Si heterojunction and achieved 20.1% efficiency for a cell size of 101 cm2.
Patent
Solar energy converter
TL;DR: In this article, a light transmitting layer containing fluorescent material, the fluorescent local maximum wave length of which lies within the effective sensitivity spectrum of solar cells, is adhered on the light receiving surface of a heat collecting plate and solar cells are provided at the sides of said light transmission layer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Interference-Free Determination of the Optical Absorption Coefficient and the Optical Gap of Amorphous Silicon Thin Films
TL;DR: In this paper, a new method to determine the optical absorption coefficient (α) of thin films is presented, which is applicable to any thin films, as long as the film is a single layer.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Influence of the Si-H2 Bond on the Light-Induced Effect in a-Si Films and a-Si Solar Cells
Noboru Nakamura,Tsuyoshi Takahama,Masao Isomura,Masato Nishikuni,Kazuhiro Yoshida,Shinya Tsuda,Shoichi Nakano,Michitoshi Ohnishi,Yukinori Kuwano +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the influence of the Si-H2 bond on light-induced degradation and the thermal recovery of a-Si films and solar cells was studied, and an irreversible phenomenon was observed in film properties and solar cell characteristics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Laser Patterning Method for Integrated Type a-Si Solar Cell Submodules
Shoichi Nakano,Tsugufumi Matsuoka,Seiichi Kiyama,Hiroshi Kawata,Noboru Nakamura,Yukio Nakashima,Shinya Tsuda,Hidenori Nishiwaki,Michitoshi Ohnishi,Isao Nagaoka,Yukinori Kuwano +10 more
TL;DR: In this article, a three-dimensional thermal analysis of a multilayer structure was performed to determine the selective scribing conditions for each layer of an a-Si solar cell.
