180 credits in science/engineering including Modern Physics and 20 credits at Master's level. Solar Energy - Technology and Systems (may be taken in parallel). Proficiency in English equivalent to the Swedish upper secondary course English 6.
Fabrication of silicon based as well as thin film solar cells, the impact on performance. Concepts for high efficiency at cell level for both silicon and thin film based celss (point contacts, light scattering, 3D structures, tandem, bandgapsgradering). Advanced module concept (back contacted solar cells, I-module, flexible modules). Simulation of solar cell structures in one dimension with two different simulation programs.
