Investigation of metal oxides thin films developed by PVD system for perovskite solar cells

(2019) Investigation of metal oxides thin films developed by PVD system for perovskite solar cells. PhD by Publication, Queensland University of Technology.

Description

This research presents thin film deposition and characterization of metal oxides using industrially viable Physical Vapour Deposition (PVD) techniques. The research examines low temperature processed electron and hole transport metal oxides for high performance and stable perovskite solar cells. The physical, chemical, optical and electronic properties of the films were investigated and their device performance has been evaluated. The performance of the device improved and the materials cost reduced by replacing the expansive organic materials with more stable inorganic metal oxides.

Citation counts are sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science® citation databases.

These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science® generally from 1980 onwards.

Citations counts from the Google Scholar™ indexing service can be viewed at the linked Google Scholar™ search.
