Fabrication Of A-C:B/N-Si Solar Cells With Low Positive Bias By Custom-Made-CVD
Boron doped amorphous carbon (a-C:B) film fabricated on n-type silicon using waste palm oil precursor by low positive bias voltage is presented. The rectifying curve were found for all samples under dark measurement revealed that those samples were p-type semiconductor. The +30 V was found the optimized of the electronic properties with the open circuit voltage (VOC), current density (JSC), fill factor (FF) and efficiency (%) were approximately 0.259034 V, 1.299456 mA/cm 2 , 0.240011, and 0.080788 %, respectively. The conversion efficiency of a-C:B has been improved under the influenced of low positive bias.
Solar cells based on carbon thin films
Abstract Carbon as an alternative material for low-cost and high-efficiency solar cell is attempted. Thin films of semiconducting n- (p-doped) and p- (un-doped) type carbon have been deposited on various substrates by ion beam sputtering and pyrolysis, using camphor as a natural carbon precursor. The optical gap of carbon has been found to be around 1.05 and
Finite Difference Modeling on the Temperature Field of Substrate in Friction Surfacing
Friction surfacing is an advanced process of great potential, especially in the field of repair and reclamation of worn and damaged components. As a kind of thermal processing technology, the temperature profile and changes of the substrate in friction surfacing are important factors to get coatings of high quality. In this paper, the temperature field of the substrate during the process is simulated by finite difference method. The results are consistent with experiments, reappearing the temperature change of the substrate during friction surfacing, allowing further study on figuration and quality of coatings.
