National Workshop and Hands-on-Training program on Solar cells 2023

About Event

The workshop, spread over three days, consist of series of lectures and hands-on-training on “Principles and Applications of Thin film solar cells”. The workshop is designed for research students and young faculties of colleges who want to have a firm grasp on the fundamentals of emerging solar cell technologies such as dye sensitized solar cells and quantum dot sensitized solar cells. Topics to be addressed in the lectures will include the following;
(i) Features of solar radiations (spectral, daily, seasonal and regional variations), Methods for solar energy conversion and storages;
Efficiency limits for the harvesting of solar energy via thermal, photovoltaic, and chemical storage routes, Principles of operation of
Phtovoltaic cells.
(ii) Design Principles and research progress on wafer based (First generation) and thin film (second generation) solar cells;
(iii) Overview of various thin film solar cell technologies such as Dye sensitized, Quantum dot sensitized, polymer organic, bulk
heterojunction and perovskite solar cells;
(iv) Scaling up of small solar cells to larger modules and panels and approaches to large scale (commercial) production of third generation solar cells.
(v) Overview of proven approaches and commercial examples of solar energy harvesting in more than 20 different ways (thermal, photovoltaic and photoelectrochemical).
Hands on tutorials will explain the design of solar photovoltaic power systems for small (W) to larger (kW and MW) installations,
portable solar powering devices and Do-it yourself fabrication of small devices for solar powering of mobile phones, LED lights and small
battery chargers.
