The influence of emitter resistance on the electrical parameters of mono- and multicrystalline silicon solar cells

Barbara Swatowska, Piotr Panek, Dagmara Michoń, Aleksandra Drygała

The purpose of this study was the comparison and analysis of the electrical parameters of two kinds of silicon solar cells (mono- and multicrystalline) of different emitter…

The impact of ribbon treatment on the interconnection of solar cells withina glass free PV module

Piotr Sobik, Radosław Pawłowski, Anna Pluta, Olgierd Jeremiasz, Kazimierz Drabczyk, Grażyna Kulesza-Matlak, Paweł Antoni Zięba

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the behavior of interconnections between solar cells in a glass-free solar modules. As glass weight can be a limitation, it is still…

Study of lamination quality of solar modules with PMMA front layer

Kazimierz Drabczyk, Piotr Sobik, Zbigniew Starowicz, Katarzyna Gawlińska, Anna Pluta, Bogusław Drabczyk

The photovoltaic modules with front glass as a protective layer are the most popular type in the industry, but for some applications it can be considered as too heavy. One of the…

Model of phosphorus diffusion in silicon for highly doped solar cell emitter layer

Wojciech Filipowski

The purpose of this paper was the development of a model enabling precise determination of phosphorus concentration profile in the emitter layer of a silicon solar cell on the…

Influence of AlN etching process on MISFET structures

Piotr Firek, Bartłomiej Stonio

The purpose of this paper is to present the influence of gate dielectric etching on obtained MISFET (metal insulator semiconductor field effect transistor) structures. Because of…

Impact of process parameters on printing resolution and dielectric properties of LTCC substrate

Laura Jasińska, Karol Malecha, Krzysztof Szostak, Piotr Słobodzian

The low-temperature co-fired ceramics (LTCC) microfluidic-microwave devices fabrication requires careful consideration of two main factors: the accuracy of deposition of…

Disposable, acetylcholinesterase-coated, screen-printed carbon electrodes for the determination of organophosphorus pesticides

Piotr Walter, Andrzej Pepłowski, Łukasz Górski, Daniel Janczak, Małgorzata Jakubowska

Because of the bioaccumulation effect, organophosphorus pesticides cause long-term damage to mammals, even at small concentrations. The ability to perturb the phospholipid bilayer…
