A comprehensive review of solar facades. Opaque solar facades

A detailed literature survey of studies carried out during the last 10 years in opaque solar facades has been performed. The studies reviewed were grouped into the following five systems: building-integrated solar thermal. building-integrated photovoltaic. building-integrated photovoltaic thermal. thermal storage wall and solar chimney. Building-integrated solar thermal technology certainly presents …

Optimized resistivity of p-type Si substrate for HIT solar cell with Al back surface field by computer simulation

Silicon heterojunction (SHJ) solar cell called HIT (heterojunction with intrinsic thin-layer). developed by SANYO Ltd. in 1994 (Sawada et al.. 1994). is produced by plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition of thin hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) layers on both sides of a high quality crystalline silicon (c-Si) wafer. Such novel solar …
