Cel The objective of this project is the interchange of knowledge and the establishment of cooperative synergies between the research and industrial sectors that are required for the development and industrial implementation of advanced photovoltaic (PV) technologies for the fabrication of low cost high efficiency Cu(In,Ga)(S,Se)2 (CIGS) thin-film solar cells and modules. The project aims exploiting the potential of CIGS based cells for achieving high efficiency devices together with that of electrodeposition (ED) based processes for the low cost industrial implementation of PV technologies. Increase of the competitiveness of these technologies requires for a significant effort in the improvement of the efficiency of the devices, which in turn implies the need for a detailed characterisation of the processes and the identification of the main loss mechanisms in the cells.The main scientific objectives of the project are: a) to decrease the gap in the efficiency of ED-based solar cells in relation to that of devices fabricated with conventional higher cost PVD techniques and b) to improve the production yield and throughput by the implementation of quality control and process monitoring techniques. For this, a consortium formed by a research institute (IREC) and a company (NEXCIS) with strongly complementary competences and scientific background is defined. In this consortium, the strong experience of the group at the NEXCIS company on the development and industrial scale-up of ED based CIGS PV technologies is complemented by the solid background and maturity of IREC on the advanced characterisation of heterostructures and processes in CIGS thin film technologies, and on the application of Raman scattering based techniques for process analysis and monitoring. The consortium covers a broad range of expertises in deposition methods, thin film devices, materials and devices characterization, and looks forward manufacturing and industrial production objectives Dziedzina nauki engineering and technologymaterials engineeringcoating and filmsengineering and technologyenvironmental engineeringenergy and fuelsrenewable energysolar energyphotovoltaic Program(-y) FP7-PEOPLE - Specific programme "People" implementing the Seventh Framework Programme of the European Community for research, technological development and demonstration activities (2007 to 2013) Temat(-y) FP7-PEOPLE-2011-IAPP - Marie Curie Action: "Industry-Academia Partnerships and Pathways" Zaproszenie do składania wniosków FP7-PEOPLE-2011-IAPP Zobacz inne projekty w ramach tego zaproszenia System finansowania MC-IAPP - Industry-Academia Partnerships and Pathways (IAPP) Koordynator FUNDACIO INSTITUT DE RECERCA DE L'ENERGIA DE CATALUNYA Wkład UE € 382 188,00 Adres C/ JARDINS DE LES DONES DE NEGRE 1 08930 Sant Adria De Besos Hiszpania Zobacz na mapie Region Este Cataluña Barcelona Rodzaj działalności Research Organisations Kontakt administracyjny Jose Miguel Sanjuan Marroquin (Mr.) Linki Kontakt z organizacją Opens in new window Strona internetowa Opens in new window Koszt całkowity Brak danych Uczestnicy (1) Sortuj alfabetycznie Sortuj według wkładu UE Rozwiń wszystko Zwiń wszystko NEXCIS Francja Wkład UE € 411 812,00 Adres ZONE INDUSTRIELLE AVENUE CELESTIN COCQ 190 13790 Rousset Zobacz na mapie Region Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur Bouches-du-Rhône Rodzaj działalności Private for-profit entities (excluding Higher or Secondary Education Establishments) Kontakt administracyjny Veronica Bermudez (Dr.) Linki Kontakt z organizacją Opens in new window Koszt całkowity Brak danych
