Abstract The conditions for Li 15 Si 4 formation in Si thin film negative electrodes was
studied during charge and discharge cycling in lithium cells. It was found that Li 15 Si 4 …

Effective surface treatments suppress possible recombination losses and confine
photogenerated electrons and holes within the bulk of the silicon wafer, thus maximizing …

Porous silicon (PS) is a fine network of very small voids (often called pores) surrounded by
thin walls (often called nanocrystallites).[1-4] PS is often synthesized from bulk crystalline …

In this manuscript, the nano and micro porous silicon was prepared using the
electrochemical etching method. Different current density was employed in this report …

Porous silicon (n-PS) with diverse morphologies was prepared on silicon (Si) substrate via
photo-electrochemical etching technique. We studies the structure, surface morphology …

Nano-crystalline size of porous silicon substrates get attractive attention in fabrication of
optoelectronic devices as photodiode, photodetectors and solar cells. Electrochemical …

Poor contact adhesion is one of the major concerns in the low cost Ni-Cu front contact
metallization for c-Si solar cells. It reduces the mechanical as well as electrical reliability of …

Abstract (Sb, Tb 3+)-doped SnO 2 thin films were deposited on monocrystalline silicon (Si)
and on porous silicon (PS) layer from sol-gel spin coating method. The photoluminescence …

Plated copper is being considered as an alternative to screenprinted silver for the front
contacts of crystalline silicon solar cells. Generally, a thin nickel layer, annealed to form …

In the work, porous silicon with observed photoluminescence was made from ap‐type silicon
substrate doped with boron and crystallographic orientation (100) using the method of …
