DESIGN, FABRICATION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF INTERDIGITATED BACK CONTACT SOLAR CELLS
Ciftpinar, Emine Hande; Turan, Raşit; Yerci, Selçuk; Department of Micro and Nanotechnology (2022-4-22)
The design and development of high-efficiency interdigitated back contact (IBC) solar cells have been studied within the scope of this thesis. Developing a totally industry-compatible, lithography-free, high-throughput process flow for IBC cell fabrication was the main motivation of the thesis. For this, a detailed simulation study was conducted using Quokka 2 software to optimize the rear side cell geometry and understand the effect of bulk and layer properties on the device performance. After determining ...
CONJUGATED POLYMERS AND ORGANIC CATIONS FOR OPTOELECTRONIC APPLICATIONS
Yaşa, Mustafa; Toppare, Levent Kamil; Arslan Udum, Yasemin; Department of Polymer Science and Technology (2022-1-27)
There are several studies on organic solar cells based on conjugated polymers in literature, and various new materials are being designed. The Donor-Acceptor approach has been the most common approach for designing and synthesizing conjugated polymers. In this study, thienopyrroledione bearing conjugated polymers were synthesized via Stille and Suzuki polycondensation reactions. In the first part of this thesis, the polymers obtained via Stille polycondensation were employed to fabricate organic solar cells...
Maximizing the performance of single and multijunction MA and lead-free perovskite solar cell
Azadinia, M.; Ameri, Mohsen; Ghahrizjani, R.T.; Fathollahi, M. (2021-06-01)
Finding a highly stable and appropriate perovskite solar cell with optimum design parameters is crucial for being included as the top cell in tandem structure, with Si as the bottom cell, to realize the power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) over the limits imposed by Shockley-Queisser theory. Here, we quantize the performance of methylammonium (MA) and lead (Pb)-free all-inorganic cesium tin-germanium triiodide (CsSnxG1-xI3) by combining CsSnI3 (Eg = 1.31 eV) and CsGeI3 (Eg = 1.63 eV) perovskites for standal...
Dual-band high-frequency metamaterial absorber based on patch resonator for solar cell applications and its enhancement with graphene layers
Ustunsoy, Mehmet Pasa; Sabah, Cumali (2016-12-05)
In this paper, a dual-band high-frequency metamaterial absorber based on patch resonator is designed and analyzed for solar cells. In order to obtain a metamaterial absorber, metal-semiconductor-metal layers are combined. The results of the designed structure are shown in the infrared and visible ranges of solar spectrum. Structural parameters and dimensions of the device have a significant importance on the performance of the designed absorber. The simulations are carried out with full-wave electromagnetic...
Simulations of the Black Sea pelagic ecosystem by 1-D, vertically resolved, physical-biochemical models
Oguz, T; Ducklow, HW; Malanotte-Rizzoli, P; Murray, JW (Wiley, 1998-09-01)
The present paper summarizes the results of several simulations of the central Black Sea pelagic food web using three different 1-D, physical-biochemical, water column process models. The most simplified, five-compartment version is used to explore the robust biological features of the ecosystem and the role of upper-layer physics on the evolution of the euphotic zone biological processes. The other models, introducing additional biological complexities, show how these biologically structured models become ...
