Two new postdoc positions are now available on III-V solar cells at IPVF/C2N, to start as soon as possible. A detailed description can be found here (postdoc1 and postdoc2). Don’t hesitate to apply for a postdoc position if you are … Continued
High efficiency AlGaAs solar cells have been demonstrated. InGaP and AlGaAs solar cells have first been grown by solid source molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) and compared. The material quality of the semiconductor layers and the design of the heterojunction have … Continued
Congratulations to Dr. Louis Gouillart on his successful thesis defense on Jan. 20th, 2020! It was entitled: Development of ultrathin Cu(In,Ga)Se2–based solar cells with reflective back contacts. We were honoured to be able to gather a prestigious jury composed of: … Continued
Welcome to our new PhD student Salim Méjaouri! He joined the team in early December to work on the characterization of perovskite solar cells, in strong collaboration with EDF and IPVF.
We are organizing a thematic school on “Physics of solar cells: from basic principles to advanced characterization” that will be held at Les Houches (Alps), France, from 1-6 March 2020. Applications must be received by 15 December 2020 (pvschool2020@c2n.upsaclay.fr). After … Continued
We are glad announce that Amaury Delamarre became a permanent CNRS researcher in the SUNLIT team on October 1rst, 2019. After a PhD thesis at IRDEP with Laurent Lombez and Jean-François Guillemoles (now IPVF), and a 4-year postdoc position at … Continued
Welcome to our new PhD students Bérengère Frouin and Capucine Tong! They joined the team in early October to work on ultrathin solar cells (Bérengère) and III-V nanowire-based solar cells (Capucine).
The SUNLIT team (C2N), in collaboration in particular with researchers at the German Fraunhofer ISE, has succeeded to trap sunlight efficiently in a solar cell thanks to an ultrathin absorbing layer made of 205 nm-thick GaAs on a nanostructured back … Continued
