Effects of spectral coupling on perovskite solar cells under diverse climatic conditions (2014)
Journal Article
Senthilarasu, S., Fernández, E. F., Almonacid, F., & Mallick, T. K. (2015). Effects of spectral coupling on perovskite solar cells under diverse climatic conditions. Solar Energy Materials and Solar Cells, 133, 92-98. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.solmat.2014.10.037

The high conversion efficiency of perovskite solar cells has opened a potential market for solar cells based on low cost manufacturing techniques which could change the photovoltaic (PV) production road map. Although the 9% efficient 10 cm x 10 cm pe... Read More about Effects of spectral coupling on perovskite solar cells under diverse climatic conditions.

Journal Article
Swami, S. K., Chaturvedi, N., Kumar, A., Chander, N., Dutta, V., Kumar, D. K., Ivaturi, A., Senthilarasu, S., & Upadhyaya, H. M. (2014). Spray deposited copper zinc tin sulphide (Cu2ZnSnS4) film as a counter electrode in dye sensitized solar cells. Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics, 16(43), 23993-23999. https://doi.org/10.1039/C4CP03312D

Stoichiometric thin films of Cu2ZnSnS4 (CZTS) were deposited by the spray technique on a FTO coated glass substrate, with post-annealing in a H2S environment to improve the film properties. CZTS films were used as a counter electrode (CE) in Dye-Sens... Read More about Spray deposited copper zinc tin sulphide (Cu2ZnSnS4) film as a counter electrode in dye sensitized solar cells.
