Earth-Abundant Materials for Solar Cells cover

Systematically describes the physical and materials properties of copper-based quaternary chalcogenide semiconductor materials, enabling their potential for photovoltaic device applications.

Intended for scientists and engineers, in particular, in the fields of multinary semiconductor physics and a variety of photovoltaic and optoelectronic devices.

This book focuses on inorganic semiconductors made of nontoxic and abundant materials...The introductory chapter defines, with sample calculations, parameters such as abundance values, spectral efficiency, effective cubic lattice constant (used in later chapters to correlate properties of these 27 semiconductors), the effective medium approximation, and interpolation schemes...This book is an authoritative source of information due to the in-depth discussions and adequate references, figures, tables, and appendices (MRS Bulletin-December 2016)
