Overview
The book takes a simple approach to address the evolution in photovoltaics from the material to the device to the panel. It discusses the associated challenges in the research area and the solutions to these problems from the materials, device, and systems processing & characterization perspective. The techniques that are required at each stage of the cell and panel characterization are described in detail, and the process-properties- performance correlations in solar cells are described as case studies. Key Features: Presents the most recent advances in the area of solar cells. Addresses the evolution in photovoltaics from the material to the device to the panel. Discusses the challenges in the area and the solutions to these problems from the materials, device, and systems processing and characterization perspective. Includes case studies that describe the process-properties-performance correlations in solar cells. Provides an overview of the various computational methods that are being utilized to simulate the performance of solar cells. Covers detailed approaches to the recycling of solar panels.
