DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/1013897· OSTI ID:1013897

Nevada Nanotechnology Center and Si group at NREL will work together to develop a-Si based solar cells with nano-Si technique. We will explore the existing a-Si based film solar cell technology at NREL and nano scale Si technology at Nevada Nanotechnology Center. By exchanging information, we will come; up with some new cell structures using nano-Si. We expect the new a-Si based cells will haveoptical enhancement or better electronic or optical properties of absorber layer to improve solar cell performance.
