PERC-like contact for CdTe
Solar
Cells
Project ID: D2019-40BackgroundCdCl2 activation is a well-known method to passivate grain boundaries for CdTe
solar
cells. In crystalline silicon solar cells, manufacturers have started to modify film structures to incorporate a passivated layer. These are called Passivated Emitter and Rear Cells (PERC). The additional layer decreases the recombination...

Passive Carbon Sequestration from Methane Reforming for Large-scale Fuel Production
Converts Methane into Pure Hydrogen or Synthesis Gas at Lower TemperaturesThis methane reforming pathway uses condensation to sequester either pure carbon or carbon dioxide. Currently available methods of industrial methane conversion to synthesis gas, or syngas (i.e., H2 and CO), primarily consists of the following techniques: steam reforming of methane,...
