3.2.2Cadmium telluride (CdTe) solar cell Cadmium telluride (CdTe) solar cell is a kind of thin-film solar cell. It is both cost-effective and commercially viable. CdTe has a high value of optical absorption coefficient with good chemical stability and bandgap of 1.5eV. The properties of CdTe...

a tandem cell architecture can be utilized1,2,3,4,5. This design incorporates a top cell with a wider bandgap to absorb high-energy photons, yielding a higher open-circuit voltage, while the bottom cell with a narrower bandgap
Even though the Langevin reduction factor is clearly different for these blends, the difference in the fill factor is not as pronounced, which is due to the favorable electron and hole transport in the PBDB-T: O-IDTBR solar cell, in combination with a lower charge-carrier generation rate, ...
At present there is an unusual permanent high pressure cell over Greenland. I think this pattern should prevail over the next 20 to 30 years and replaces the positive pattern of the last 30 years. The global warming models have suggested that man-made CO2 will keep the AO and NAO in ...
this, incorporating a material with a band gap smaller than 1.55 eV into the structure would enable the absorption of lower-energy photons in the solar cell. To accomplish this, we introduced an additional layer of MASnI3, positioned between the HTL and MAPbI3layer. To achieve the desired im...
and L.K.O performed a major portion of sample preparation, XRD, AFM, UPS and solar cell performance measurements. All authors discussed the results, performed data analysis and explanation, wrote the manuscript and revised it. Ethics declarations Competing interests Yes, there is a competing ...
Note however that some mean-field turbulence models do produce a single-cell meridional flow in conjunction with a solar-like differential rotation profile; see, e.g., Kitchatinov and Olemskoy (2011). Alternate versions of flux transport dynamos can be constructed by relying on turbulent pumping...
Layer-structured Ruddlesden–Popper (RP) perovskites (RPPs) with decent stability have captured the imagination of the photovoltaic research community and bring hope for boosting the development of perovskite solar cell (PSC) technology. However, two-dimensional (2D) or quasi-2D RP PSCs are encount...
