Allen, and Stefaan De Wolf develop a novel 3-D optoelectrical finite-element model to analyze the performance of ultrathin solar cells. In particular, the 3-D model investigates the light trapping and field passivation in which the negative charges induced on the nanostructured passivation layer repel the minority charge carriers, increasing the solar cell's open-circuit voltage and power conversion efficiency.Read More
