Copper and iron chalcogenides for efficient solar absorption

Creator:

Platt, Heather A. S.

Abstract:

This dissertation outlines two approaches for improving the efficiency and reducing the cost of photovoltaic energy generation. First, the structures of known binary copper and iron compounds are used to choose the promising compositions Fe₂XS₄ (X = Si, Ge), Cu₃TaQ₄ (Q = Se, Te), and BaCuQ'F (Q' = S, Se,...

Iron and copper chalcogenides : photovoltaic absorber candidates and YZrF7 : a new upconversion host, Iron and copper chalcogenides : photovoltaic absorber candidates and YZrF₇ : a new upconversion host

Creator:

Jieratum, Vorranutch

Abstract:

The materials Fe₂(Si,Ge)(S,Se)₄, Cu₃PS[subscript 4-x]Se[subscript x] (0 ≤ x ≤ 4), and Cu₃PxAs[subscript 1-x]S₄ (0 ≤ x ≤ 1) have been synthesized and studied as new earth-abundant absorbers for single and multijunction photovoltaic cells as well as solar fuel generation. The synthesis, single-crystal growth, and optical and electrical properties of...
