Formation of Cu₂ZnSnS₄ Thin Films via Reactive Sintering of Binary Metal-Sulfide Nanoparticles Using Intense Pulsed Light

Creator:

Zeng, Cheng

Abstract:

Copper zinc tin sulfide (CZTS) is a potential solar material for thin film solar cells according to its suitable band gap in the visible light range, high absorption coefficient, low toxicity, good photostability and relative earth abundance of component elements. However, the production cost of this solar thin film material...

Down-Shifting Nanoparticles and Anti-reflective Nanoparticles Co-Coating Applied on Top Glass Cover of Silicon-Based Solar Panels

Creator:

Jing, Qun

Abstract:

Photoluminescence (PL) materials have attracted a lot of attention in last several decades. Recently PL materials, which can convert low-efficiency Ultraviolet (UV) or Infrared (IR) light to high-efficiency visible light, have been widely applied in the research of improving conversion efficiency of solar cell. As one of the most common...

Experimental Study of Nucleate Boiling Bubble Dynamics and Heat Transfer Enhancement on Printed Bi-functional Surfaces

Creator:

David, Michele

Abstract:

Boiling heat transfer is studied for its ability to dissipate high fluxes and achieve heat transfer coefficients two orders of magnitude greater than single-phase heat transfer systems. Heater surface enhancement with increased surface area, varied geometry, wettability contrast and micro/nano-structures can further enhance boiling heat transfer performance through bubble nucleation...
