Fabrication and Characterization of Nanowires and Quantum Dots for Advanced Solar Cell Architectures
(University of Waterloo, 2012-05-01)The commercially available solar cells suffer from low conversion efficiency due to the thermalization and transmission losses arising from the mismatch between the band gap of the semiconductor materials and the solar ... -
Quantum Dots for Intermediate Band in Solar Cells
(University of Waterloo, 2013-01-25)The commercially available solar cells suffer from low efficiency and high cost. This would avoid presence of solar cells as a secure energy resource in the market. Problems stem from two facts. Firstly, band gap of materials ...
