    Advanced Experimental Techniques for RF and DC Breakdown Research

    Get PDF
    Advanced experimental techniques are being developed to analyze RF and DC breakdown events. First measurements with a specially built spectrometer have been made with a DC spark setup [1] at CERN and will soon be installed in the CLIC 30GHz accelerating structure test stand to allow comparison between DC and RF breakdown phenomena. This spectrometer is able to measure the light intensity development during a breakdown in narrow wavelength bands in the visible and near infrared range. This will give information about the important aspects of the breakdown including chemical elements, temperature, plasma parameters and possibly precursors of a breakdown

    Demonstrating the high Voc potential of PEDOT:PSS/c-Si heterojunctions on solar cells

    In this study, we demonstrate the high surface passivation quality of PEDOT:PSS/c-Si junctions for the first time on solar cell level, reaching a record high Voc value of 688 mV after full-area metallization of the PEDOT:PSS. We achieve this by combining the PEDOT:PSS hole-selective layer at the rear of the crystalline silicon wafer with a well-passivating electron-selective a-Si:H(i/n) layer stack at the front. Our results clearly prove the excellent hole selectivity of PEDOT:PSS on crystalline silicon. © 2017 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Ltd

    Empirical comparison of high gradient achievement for different metals in DC and pulsed mode

    For the SwissFEL project, an advanced high gradient low emittance gun is under development. Reliable operation with an electric field, preferably above 125 MV/m at a 4 mm gap, in the presence of an UV laser beam, has to be achieved in a diode configuration in order to minimize the emittance dilution due to space charge effects. In the first phase, a DC breakdown test stand was used to test different metals with different preparation methods at voltages up to 100 kV. In addition high gradient stability tests were also carried out over several days in order to prove reliable spark-free operation with a minimum dark current. In the second phase, electrodes with selected materials were installed in the 250 ns FWHM, 500 kV electron gun and tested for high gradient breakdown and for quantum efficiency using an ultra-violet laser.Comment: 25 pages, 13 figures, 5 tables.

    Chemical reactions in electric metal pulse dispersion in the aqueous solutions of inorganic substance (НSiO[3]{–}, Ni{2+}, Н[2]AsO[4]{–}, Mn{2+}, Cr[2]O[7]{2–}) were determined through IR spectroscopy, X-ray phase, chemical, kinetic, and thermodynamic analyses. Under such conditions, both reduction and oxidation reactions occur, as well as, locally initiated by heating, hydrolysis and exchange reactions without changing the oxidation rate of the dissolved substance itself. Reduction and oxidation of dissolved substances is determined by the generation and activation of high dispersed Fe in an electric discharge. Physical and chemical processes which take place under the action of pulse electric discharges upon the layer of metallic grains in salt solution, containing НSiO[3]{–}, Ni{2+}, Н[2]AsO[4]{–}, Mn{2+}, Cr[2]O[7]{2–} ions were determined on the basis of product composition, obtained experimentally and the thermodynamic data. It was shown, that PED discharge in heterogeneous mediums can be used for waste and natural water purification

    The silane depletion fraction as an indicator for the amorphous/crystalline silicon interface passivation quality

    Get PDF
    In silicon heterojunction solar cells, thin amorphous silicon layers passivate the crystalline silicon wafer surfaces. By using in situ diagnostics during plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD), the authors report how the passivation quality of such layers directly relate to the plasma conditions. Good interface passivation is obtained from highly depleted silane plasmas. Based upon this finding, layers deposited in a large-area very high frequency (40.68 MHz) PECVD reactor were optimized for heterojunction solar cells, yielding aperture efficiencies up to 20.3% on 4 cm
