Analysing the Sputtered Al Doped ZnO on Oriented Cu2O Heterojunction Solar Cell with Improved Performance | Chapter 1 | Recent Trends in Chemical and Material Sciences Vol. 1

 Cu2O/AZO photovoltaic (PV) devices that are electrodeposited are promising low-cost solar cells. During the sputtering process, both layers of Cu2O and AZO heterojunction topologies are investigated as a function of AZO target-Cu2O substrate distance. The Cu2O/AZO PV device was made by electrodepositing a 111>-p-Cu2O layer on an Au (111)/Si wafer substrate and then sputtering the AZO layer on top. Under AM1.5 illumination, the Cu2O/AZO PV device demonstrated photovoltaic performance, which varied depending on the target-substrate distance. The damage at the Cu2O/AZO interface was reduced by increasing the target-substrate distance when sputtering the AZO layer. As a result, the Voc and power conversion efficiency were improved from 0.16 V and 0.46 percent to 0.30 V and 0.64 percent, respectively.

Influence the Laser Pulse Energy on the Electrical Properties of Cu2O Nanoparticles Prepared by Laser Induce Plasma | Chapter 3 | Newest Updates in Physical Science Research Vol. 10

 Copper oxide films (Cu2O) were produced in vacuum using laser ablation with a Nd:YAG laser with a wavelength of 1064 nm. The electrical characteristics of nanoparticles were studied as a function of laser pulse energy ranging from 600 to 900 mJ and annealing temperatures of (473,573 and 673)k. The electrical mobility, carrier concentration, conductivity, and majority of electrical carriers were all determined using the Hall Effect method.
