Passivation of semiconductor surfaces is crucial to reduce carrier recombination losses and
thereby enhance the device performance of solar cells and other semiconductor devices …

Upconversion of sub-band-gap photons has the potential to increase the efficiency of solar
cells significantly, but requires modification of the solar cells. In this paper, we present a …

In this paper, we present an effective emitter passivation scheme using SiO 2/Al 2 O 3/SiN x
stacks. Our study shows that SiO 2/Al 2 O 3/SiN x stacks can well passivate both p+ and n+ …

The surface passivation performance of Al2O3 films attracted attention in the field of solar
cells and semiconductor devices and depends on the conditions of the applied post …

The book addresses the problem of passivation at the surface of crystalline silicon solar
