This paper presents the deposition and characterization of microcrystalline silicon(${\mu}c$-Si:H) films by HWCVD(Hot-wire Chemical Vapor Deposition) method at low substrate($300^{\circ}C$). The filament temperature, pressure and $SiH_4$ concentration were determined to be a critical parameter for the deposition of poly-Si films. Series A was deposited under the conditions of $1380^{\circ}C$(Tf), 100 mTorr and $2{\sim}10%\{SC:SiH_4/(SiH_4+H_2)\}$ for 60 min. Series B was deposited under the conditions of $1400{\sim}1450^{\circ}(T_f)$, 30 mTorr and $2{\sim}12%$(SC) for 60 min. The physical characteristics were measured by Raman and FTIR spectroscopy, dark and photoconductivity measurements under AM1.5 illumination.

In this paper, a characteristics analysis of the grid-connected photovoltaic power generation system which uses the simulation method of PV array is reported. The control method of DC/AC power conversion were suggested to establish the basic application technology of photovoltaic systems. The results of the demonstration test of a 3kW grid-connected PV system show that the system utilization rate is 17.6% and the system efficiency is 8.9%.

Solar energy has inestimable development potential. However, it is an extreme intermittent and inconstant energy source. The radiative energy output from the sun derives from a nuclear fusion reaction. So it is necessary to study the photovoltaic P-V characteristics according to the irradiation. The results show that the DC power of the photovoltaic system is increased along with the increasing values of irradiation and module.

The performance of PV module applying the photovoltaic effects of the semiconductor is affected by temperature. Until now, most of PV module show that the power and efficiency falls at a rate of ${\sim}0.5%/^{\circ}C$ and ${\sim}0.05%/^{\circ}C$ respectively as increase of ambient temperature. In this study, the effect of fins attached to the backside of PV module was investigated through a thermal analysis program and simulation model. The result shows that the inner temperature of PV module with fin falls about $10^{\circ}C$ compare to that of ordinary PV module.

This study investigates the degradation characteristics of different material types of ethyl vinyl acetate (EVA) and polyolefin (POE) with combining transparent backsheet. To this end, we fabricated samples with structure of glass/encapsulant/transparent backsheet for each type of encapsulants, and shingled Si modules with the same structure. The samples were then subjected to accelerated test by storing under damp heat condition of 85℃ and 85% RH. As a result, encaplsulant discoloration was observed, which the transmittance of the samples with EVA decreased in a rapid rate than the samples with POE. The discoloration also affected a power degradation of the shingled modules with a reduction of current density, resulting that the module with EVA showed more drop on the efficiency than the modules with POE. Furthermore, corrosion of the soldered ribbon caused by acetic acid produced from the degraded EVA also contributed in fill factor reduction.

Renewable energy resources will be an increasingly important part of power generation in the new millennium. Besides assisting in the reduction of the emission of greenhouse gases, they add the much needed flexibility to the energy resource mix by decreasing the dependence on fossil fuels. Due to their modular characteristics, ease of installation and because they can be located closer to the user, PV system have great potential as distributed power source to the utilities. In this paper, a dc-de power converter scheme with the push-pull based technology is proposed to apply for solar power system which has many features such as high efficiency, stable output, and low acoustic noises, DC-DC converter is used in proposed topology has stable efficiency curve at all load range and very high efficiency characteristics. This paper presents the design of a single-phase photovoltaic inverter model and the simulation of its performance.

The photovoltaic module has the characteristic that the output power varies according to the amount of insolation. If partial shading occurs in an environment composed of an array, a number of local maximum power points (LMPPs) may be generated according to the shading state. Photovoltaic arrays require global maximum power point tracking due to variations in output characteristics caused by solar radiation and temperature. Conventional algorithms, such as P&O and Incond, do not follow the global maximum power point in a partial shaded solar array. In this study, we propose a technique to follow the global maximum power point by using the correlation of voltage, current, and power in solar arrays. The proposed control technique 2qw validated through simulation and experiments by constructing a 2-kW solar system.
