Performance of micro-/poly-crystalline SiGe alloy solar cell of TCO/(n)a-Si:H/(i)a-Si/(p) c(pc)-SiGe/(p+)μc-Si/Al structure was analyzed via the AFORS-HET software. Cell structures can be designed to reach up to the optimal performance. Employment of back surface electric field layer of (p+)μc-Si could improve cell properties. The maximum photoelectric conversion efficiency η=21.48% occurs in a cell with average Ge percent content x0.1 and 250 m-thick Si1-xGex alloy light absorption layer, which is higher than the experimental result of the same absorption layer thickness crystalline Si HIT cell [Progress in Photovoltaics: Research and Applications, 8 (2000) 503.]. Temperature dependence of the cell performance parameters (open circuit voltage Voc, circuit current density Jsc, fill factor FF and efficiency η) indicates that Si0.9Ge0.1 cell shows weaker temperature sensitivity than that of pure Si cell. Numerical calculation illustrates that Voc decreases while Jsc, FF and η heighten with raising mean grain sizes and crystalline volume fractions, these variations with the later are more remarkable. Present optimized technique will be benefit to designing and fabricating the high performance solar cell.

ABSTRACTLaser welding of transparent high performance polymer foils requires an additional absorption layer at the interface of both foils. This paper demonstrates that metallic nano-particles, e.g. gold, silver or copper, can act as such an absorption layer. Silver nanoparticles were deposited on the surface of 200 μm thick ethylene tetrafluoroethylene (ETFE) polymer foils by evaporation processes or by magnetron sputtering. For their additional mechanical stabilization, thin films produced by plasma polymerisation of hexamethyldisilazane or PTFE-polymer sputtering were deposited on top of the metal nanoparticles. Laser irradiation of the coated foil together with the untreated joining partner was performed by a continuous wave diode laser at a wavelength of 808 nm. With the defocused laser, the foils were welded and finally a nearly transparent welding seam was achieved. The nanostructure and the optical properties of the nanoparticle layer before laser irradiation were determined and compared with the nanostructure and the optical properties of the polymer metal nanocomposite after laser welding.

Electron Energy Loss

A double focusing magnetic spectrometer has been constructed for use with a field emission electron gun scanning microscope in order to study the electron energy loss mechanism in thin specimens. It is of the uniform field sector type with curved pole pieces. The shape of the pole pieces is determined by requiring that all particles be focused to a point at the image slit (point 1). The resultant shape gives perfect focusing in the median plane (Fig. 1) and first order focusing in the vertical plane (Fig. 2).

One of the most important requirements for a high-performance EM, especially an analytical EM using a fine beam probe, is to prevent specimen contamination by providing a clean high vacuum in the vicinity of the specimen. However, in almost all commercial EMs, the pressure in the vicinity of the specimen under observation is usually more than ten times higher than the pressure measured at the punping line. The EM column inevitably requires the use of greased Viton O-rings for fine movement, and specimens and films need to be exchanged frequently and several attachments may also be exchanged. For these reasons, a high speed pumping system, as well as a clean vacuum system, is now required. A newly developed electron microscope, the JEM-100CX features clean high vacuum in the vicinity of the specimen, realized by the use of a CASCADE type diffusion pump system which has been essentially improved over its predeces- sorD employed on the JEM-100C.

In the design engineering of high performance electromagnetic lenses, the direct conversion of electron optical design data into drawings for reliable hardware is oftentimes difficult, especially in terms of how to mount parts to each other, how to tolerance dimensions, and how to specify finishes. An answer to this is in the use of magnetostatic analytics, corresponding to boundary conditions for the optical design. With such models, the magnetostatic force on a test pole along the axis may be examined, and in this way one may obtain priority listings for holding dimensions, relieving stresses, etc..The development of magnetostatic models most easily proceeds from the derivation of scalar potentials of separate geometric elements. These potentials can then be conbined at will because of the superposition characteristic of conservative force fields.
