Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEffects of the Contact Resistivity Variations of the Screen-Printed Silicon Solar CellShahrul Anizan, Khairymazalee Yusri, Cheow Siu Leong et al.Problem statement: Unmatched combination of emitter and base contact resistance will influence the total performance of the solar cell. To optimize this combination, single crystalline silicon solar cell was analyzed using quasi-one-dimensional transport of electrons and holes in crystalline semiconductor, PC1D. Approach: Effects of the resistance of the emitter and base contact have been investigated with a view to find … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 18 Aug 2011 · 8,335 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Comparative SCAPS-1D Study of Lead-Free CsSnCl₃-Based Perovskite SCs Employing Different ETLsRony Tota, Shak Mahmudul Hasan, Md. Morsalin et al.Cesium tin chloride (CsSnCl3) has drawn considerable interest as a non-toxic absorber candidate for next-generation photovoltaic devices, offering an attractive combination of affordability, thermal robustness, and competitive conversion performance suitable for clean-energy deployment. In the present work, the photovoltaic behaviour of CsSnCl₃-based SCs was numerically examined using the SCAPS-1D software. Three distinct device stacks were constructed by varying the ETL, … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 1 · 22 May 2026 · 1,737 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparison of an AI-Based Controller for a Positive Output Superlift DC-DC ConverterRicha Adlakha, Ashish Grover, Neha Chaudhary et al.DC-DC converters have emerged as crucial components in various industrial applications and form an integral part of power supplies based on switch-mode. Solar energy has garnered increasing significance owing to the scarcity of non-renewable fuels and its abundant availability. Photovoltaic (PV) technology, characterized by the arrangement of numerous series and parallel-connected PV cells within modules, generates DC output. Consequently, the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 2 · 17 Feb 2026 · 1,542 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBulk and Interface Configuration on the Performances of Perovskite Solar CellsSankara Issiaka, Soumaïla Ouédraogo, Daouda Oubda et al.The ongoing search for energy conversion technologies that are more efficient, affordable, and sustainable than traditional solar cells have led researchers to look at other technologies. Among these technologies, perovskite-based solar cells seem increasingly credible, as they have the potential to achieve high energy conversion efficiencies that rival or even surpass those of silicon solar cells, which currently dominate the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 20, Issue 1 · 7 Nov 2023 · 6,018 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUtilization of Solar Radiation in High Energy Intensive of the World by PV SystemU. Ali RahomaSolar energy can be converted directly into electricity by means of solar cells. Solar cells currently cost around $3.50 per watt for crystalline cells and $2 per watt for thin-film wafers, which are less efficient but can be integrated into building materials. Industry analysts note that between 2000 and 2005, each doubling of cumulative production resulted in a price drop … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Apr 2008 · 9,680 accessesView PDFCite
