| Abstract | Multi-interface solar cells exhibit a dramatically low UV- and blue-spectrum photovoltaic performance independently of the electronic quality of their surface. A paradox can even be observed, the better the electronic passivation the poorer the conversion efficiency. The effect can be explained by solar light-induced opacity, which reduces considerably or even totally the photon penetration, into the device bulk. This opacity results from a feedback occasioned by the free-carrier absorption: better surface passivation, higher free-carrier density, stronger surface dead zone absorptance. Particularly, the total energy of the incident short wavelength beam can be absorbed in front of a carrier collection limit buried in the emitter. This limit acts simultaneously on the electronic performance, blocking free-carriers, and on the optical performance, being at the origin of an enhancement of the absorptance. As a consequence, a thin surface stratum dominates the optical functions of MIND cells through the free-carrier gas confined inside it. The main characterization methods used were reflectivity and spectral response with a varying intensity incident beam. The investigation allows modification of the free-carrier confinement using different device architectures. The results demonstrate the domination of the free-carrier optical functions on the multi-interface cell conversion |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
