Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There has been a resurgence of interest in light-induced water splitting as the search for storable carbon neutral energy becomes more urgent. Although the history of the basic idea dates back more than four decades, efficient, economical and stable integrated devices have yet to be realized. In the continuing quest for such devices, the field of photoelectrochemistry is entering a new phase where the extraordinary interdisciplinary of the research and development efforts are opening new avenues. This aspect of current research effort is reflected in the chapters of this book, which encompass present thinking in the various disciplines such as materials science, photo-electrochemistry and interfaces that can contribute to realization of viable solar fuel generators. This book presents a blend of the background science and recent advances in the field of photoelectrochemical water splitting, and includes aspects that point towards medium to long term future realization. The content of the book goes beyond the more traditional approaches to the subject by including topics such as novel excitation energy processes that have only been realized so far in advanced photonics. The comprehensive overview of current activities and development horizons provided by the impressive collection of internationally renowned authors therefore represents a unique reflection of current thinking regarding water splitting by light.

Book Synopsis Research on Electrochemical Photovoltaic Cells by : Dennis Morgan Tench
Download or read book Research on Electrochemical Photovoltaic Cells written by Dennis Morgan Tench and published by . This book was released on 1985 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report contains results of research conducted to provide a basis for designing a practical electrochemical solar cell based on the II-VI compound semiconductors. Emphasis was on developing new solvent/redox systems and conducting films that will stabilize the II-VI compounds against photodissolution without seriously degrading the long-term solar response and on applying electrochemical photocapacitance spectroscopy (EPS) to the development of improved thin-film materials. In photoelectrode stabilization, work focused on electrode-posited polypyrrole to determine the effects of the deposition parameters on the film density and electrical conductivity. These film properties were found to vary dramatically with the substrate, deposition conditions, electrolyte and anion employed, indicating there is considerable leeway for improvement. The most dense and highly conductive films have involved polymeric anions, nonaqueous solvents, and metallic substrates. A promising approach to providing an improved surface for polymer deposition on semiconductors has been identified. In the EPS area, the focus was on the development of thin-film CdSe materials.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Physics and Electrochemistry of the Semiconductor and Its Application is written with a view to helping researchers and students understand the basics of physics in developing a PEC solar cell, including the electrochemistry of metals and semiconductors, a knowledge required for understanding the basic principles of a PEC cell. While dealing with PEC cells, it is also necessary to understand some specific electronic and electrochemical methods needed to interpret the equivalent circuits of a PEC cell. Finally, it is also necessary to study the various applications of PEC cells, in addition to generating electrical power from solar rays, such as carrying out certain one-step syntheses that conventionally may comprise more than a few steps. Application of photochromism is another area needing development, in which the least effort has been made by present-day researchers. Dye-sensitized solar cells are also becoming very popular. This science has developed many highly efficient solar cells, which are also discussed. The post graduate level textbook explores essential knowledge of semiconductor physics and electrochemistry in order to understand the larger subject of photoelectrochemical solar cells. The readers whose research focus is the electrochemistry of semiconductor would benefit most from this book. Learning from the author's own teaching experience, this book is written to have a diverse range of engineerign students understand physics, electrochemistry.

Book Synopsis Photovoltaic and Photoelectrochemical Solar Energy Conversion by : F. Cardon
Download or read book Photovoltaic and Photoelectrochemical Solar Energy Conversion written by F. Cardon and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years there has been an increasing interest in syscems which enable the conversion of solar energy into electri calor chemical energy. Many types of systems have been proposed and studied experimenta11y, the fundamentals of which extend from solid state physics to photo- and electrochemistry. For most of the systems considered excitation of an electron by absorption of a photon is fo1lowed by charge separation at an interface. It follows that the different fields involved (photovo1taics, photo electrochemistry, photogalvanics, etc.) have several essential aspects in common. It was the main purpose with the NATO Advanced Study Insti tute held at Gent, Belgium, from August 25 to September 5, 1980, to bring together research workers specializing in one of these fields in order to enab1e them not only to extend their knowledge into their own field but also to promote the interdisciplinary exchange of ideas. The scope of the A.S.I. has been 1imited to systems which have not or have hardly reached the stage of prac tica1 development. As a consequence, no lectures on economica1 aspects of solar energy conversion have been included. The topics covered in this volume are the fundamentals of recombination in solar ce1ls (P. Landsberg), theoretical and experimental aspects of heterojunctions and semiconductor/metal Schottky barriers (J.J. Loferski, W.H. Bloss and W.G. Townsend), photoelectrochemica1 ce11s (H. Gerischer and A.J. Nozik), pho- v PREFACE vi ga1vanic ce11s (W.J. Albery) and fina11y, surfactant assemb1ies (M. Grätzel).

Book Synopsis Photoelectrochemical Solar Cells by : Nurdan Demirci Sankir
Download or read book Photoelectrochemical Solar Cells written by Nurdan Demirci Sankir and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2018-11-30 with total page 483 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a broad overall view of the photoelectrochemical systems for solar hydrogen generation, and new and novel materials for photoelectrochemical solar cell applications. Hydrogen has a huge potential as a safe and efficient energy carrier, which can be used directly in fuel cells to obtain electricity, or it can be used in the chemical industry, fossil fuel processing or ammonia production. However, hydrogen is not freely available in nature and it needs to be produced. Photoelectrochemical solar cells produce hydrogen from water using sunlight and specialized semiconductors, which use solar energy to directly dissociate water molecules into hydrogen and oxygen. Hence, these systems reduce fossil fuels dependency and curb carbon dioxide emissions. Photoelectrochemical Solar Cells compiles the objectives related to the new semiconductor materials and manufacturing techniques for solar hydrogen generation. The chapters are written by distinguished authors who have extensive experience in their fields. Multidisciplinary contributors from physics, chemical engineering, materials science, and electrical and electronic information engineering, provide an in-depth coverage of the topic. Readers and users have the opportunity to learn not only about the fundamentals but also the various aspects of the materials science and manufacturing technologies for photoelectrochemical solar cells and the hydrogen generation systems via photoelectrochemical conversion.

Book Synopsis Electrochemical Processes for Metallization of Novel Silicon Solar Cells by : Mathias Kamp
Download or read book Electrochemical Processes for Metallization of Novel Silicon Solar Cells written by Mathias Kamp and published by Fraunhofer Verlag. This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Within this work electrochemical processes for manufacturing of novel silicon solar cells are investigated. Direct plating of Ni and Al on n- and p- silicon is demonstrated by making use of solar cell characteristics. Homogenous Ni/Cu stacks are realized for bifacial and back contact solar cells, forming an excellent mechanical and electrical contact to silicon. For metallization of HIT solar cells, the plating behavior on ITO layers is studied. Additionally, plating processes on evaporated Al layers are developed and applied to back contact solar cells. By means of process optimization the plated metal stack on Al features sufficient adhesion and increases the lateral conductivity of the metal grid resulting in increased solar cell efficiency. An advanced metallization route for back contact solar cells which purposefully utilizes the different characteristics of the deposited metals (Al, Ni, Cu) is developed. The resulting metal stacks are characterized in detail using SEM, EDX and AES methods. Besides plating processes, local oxidizing processes for Al are established and combined with printing technologies to realize the metal contact separation for back contact solar cells.
