Faglige interesser

Jeg jobber med avanserte materialer som jeg håper kan bidra til bedre solceller i fremtiden. Materialene jeg jobber med er halvledere, og fokuset er knyttet til nanostrukturer i halvledere. Arbeidet mitt har så langt hovedsaklig fokusert på optiske egenskaper (Photoluminescence, UV-vis spektroskopi og ellipsimetri) og deponering av tynne filmer (Atomic Layer Deposition), men jeg jobber også med elektrisk karakterisering.

Bakgrunn

I 2012 gikk jeg ut fra Universitetet i Oslo med en master i "Materialer, energi og nanoteknologi". Masteroppgaven omhandlet termoelektriske materialer, og jeg undersøkte om varmeledningsegenskapene endrer seg når nanostrukturen i materialet endrer seg. Oppgaven het Termisk ledningsevne og nanostruktur i La0,7Sr0,3CoO(3-delta) (0 < delta < 0,15) , og denne finner dere her. For en mer populærvitenskapelig fremstilling av oppgaven kan dere heller lese artikkelen Universitas skrev i 2012.

Etter at studiene var ferdig reiste jeg ut i den virkelige verden for å smake litt på konsulentbransjen. Der ble jeg kjent med mange spennende norske bedrifter, innen en rekke ulike bransjer. Til tross for to hyggelige år savnet jeg forskningen og det å finne ut hvordan og hvorfor ting er som de er. Dette førte meg tilbake til universitetet, og jeg håper at arbeidet jeg gjør kan ta oss ett skritt nærmere billigere og mer effektive solceller.

Formidling

Jeg er opptatt av god formidling, spesielt populærvitenskapelig formidling. I løpet av min tid på univestitetet har jeg fått mange muligheter til dette. For eksempel har jeg holdt et foredrag om hvorfor solceller fremdeles er et høyaktuelt fornybart alternativ, og det kan dere se her.

I høst vant jeg den regionale finalen i formidlingskonkurransen "Forsker Grand Prix" som vises på NRK desember 2017.

Floating photovoltaic (FPV) modules operate above water, leading to concerns about increased humidity-induced degradation compared to ground-mounted PV (GPV) modules. However, data to assess FPV degradation are limited. This study addresses this knowledge gap by analysing multi-year meteorological datasets from seven inland water bodies and nearby locations on land and subsequently calculating module temperatures, relative humidities (RH), and moisture ingress profiles. Ambient and module temperatures over water and land were similar (absolute mean differences of under 2 °C), while RHs over water surfaces could be higher or lower than over land (absolute mean differences of up to 9 percentage points), depending on location. Over land, diurnal fluctuations in temperature and RH were higher than over water, attributed to the stabilizing influence of water bodies. Modelled internal moisture contents were almost always higher in GPV modules than in FPV ones (up to 37% higher mean concentration). Lastly, the effects of FPV system design on humidity-induced stress were studied by varying module height above water and system heat transfer efficiency. This led to changes in internal moisture contents (up to 47% and 42% differences in mean moisture concentration, respectively) that often exceeded the observed water-land differences, indicating the importance of FPV system design on humidity-induced stress. This study challenges the commonly held assumption of universally greater humidity-induced stress in FPV systems and highlights the critical role of site-specific factors and system design, thereby advancing the understanding of FPV reliability.

The interest in floating photovoltaics (FPV) as a land-sparing alternative has been rapidly growing over the last few years. So far, most of the installed FPV systems are inland on relatively calm waters. However, with the expanding market, FPV is moving to nearshore and offshore locations. There, larger waves can be expected resulting in a need for evaluating the impact of wave motion on the performance of FPV systems. Wave-induced movements of the PV panels can lead to varying irradiance levels, also within the string of panels, causing wave-induced loss (WIL). In this work, we have developed a model to simulate WIL for FPV systems. The model consists of three main modelling steps, wave-structure-interaction modelling, irradiance modelling and electrical modelling, where the second step has been experimentally verified. In the model, the in-house software 3DFloat is used to simulate the movement of the PV panels, and existing python libraries are used for the irradiance and electrical modelling. With this method, WIL has been simulated for different scenarios, to study the influence of different locations, sea states, times of year, string lengths, tilt angles and wave directions. The simulated WIL varied greatly with the chosen conditions. As an example, the WIL ranged from 3.3% for a significant wave height of 0.25 m to 6.7% for a significant wave height of 1 m.

Floating photovoltaics (FPV) is rapidly emerging as a promising alternative to ground-mounted PV (GPV) where available land area is scarce or expensive. Improved cooling has often been reported as a benefit of FPV, as cell temperature is an important parameter for the performance of a PV system. However, more recent literature shows that the cooling effect depends strongly on FPV technology and that it is not always superior to that of open rack GPV systems. There is still a need for more information on how to estimate cell temperatures for FPV systems, and how to consider the influence of various environmental factors such as wind speed and direction. Operating cell temperature may be estimated with the PVsyst model, where heat loss coefficients (U-values) denote the heat transfer capabilities of the PV system. In this work, cell temperatures and U-values for a small footprint FPV system with east-west orientation and a 15° tilt located in Sri Lanka are studied using both module temperature measurements and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modelling. CFD modelling allows for investigating the influence of both wind speed and direction on cell temperatures, as well as to look at the distribution of cell temperatures within the system under different wind conditions. Calculations based on measurements give Uc = 22.6 W/m2K and Uv = 4.9 Ws/m3K and correlate well with CFD calculations. We also show that wind direction, system configuration and sensor placement influence the estimated U-values, complicating the use of tabulated values for any given technology.

Plasmonic structures can help enhance optical activity in the ultraviolet (UV) region and therefore enhancing photocatalytic reactions and the detection of organic and biological species. Most plasmonic structures are composed of Ag or Au. However, producing structures small enough for optical activity in the UV region has proved difficult. In this study, we demonstrate that aluminium nanowires are an excellent alternative. We investigated the plasmonic properties of the Al nanowires as well as the optoelectronic properties of the surrounding a − Si matrix by combining scanning transmission electron microscopy imaging, electron energy loss spectroscopy and electrodynamic modelling. We have found that the Al nanowires have distinct plasmonic modes in the UV and far UV region, from 0.75 eV to 13 eV. In addition, simulated results found that the size and spacing of the Al nanowires, as well as the embedding material were shown to have a large impact on the type of surface plasmon energies that can be generated in the material. Using electromagnetic modelling, we have identified the modes and illustrated how they could be tuned further.

Nanoporous amorphous silicon (a-Si) with <5 nm cylindrical pores have been fabricated by phase separation of aluminum (Al) and silicon, forming self-assembled Al nanowires (NWs), followed by subsequent removal of Al by wet etching. This work studies the removal process of the Al NWs when using the different etchants HCl, H3PO4, and H2SO4. Total reflectance measurements are used in combination with theoretical modeling to estimate the lateral gradient of Al concentration formed during the etching process. X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy is used to show that the choice of Al etching agent has implications for the surface states of the remaining a-Si matrix. We have found that H3PO4 is the most efficient etching agent, while HCl provides a less oxidized a-Si matrix in addition to the least reflective surface. By varying the etching agent, the degree of surface oxidation and shape of Al gradient throughout the film can be tuned.

Nanoporous and nanowire structures based on silicon (Si) have a well recognized potential in a number of applications such as photovoltaics, energy storage and thermoelectricity. The immiscibility of Si and aluminum (Al) may be utilized to produce a thin film of vertically aligned Al nanowires of 5 nm diameter within an amorphous silicon matrix (a-Si), providing a cheap and scalable fabrication method for sub 5 nm size Si nanostructures. In this work we study functionalization of these structures by removal of the Al nanowires. The nanowires have been etched by an aqueous solution of HCl, which results in a structure of vertically aligned nanochannels in a-Si with admixture of SiO x . The removal of Al nanowires has been monitored by several electron microscopy techniques, x-ray diffraction, Rutherford backscattering spectroscopy, and optical reflectance. We have established that optical reflectance measurements can reliably identify the complete removal of Al, confirmed by other techniques. This provides a robust and relatively simple method for controlling the nano-fabrication process on a macroscopic scale.

We present a study of the surface effects and optical properties of the self-assembled nanostructures comprised of vertically aligned 5 nm-diameter Al nanowires embedded in an amorphous Si matrix (a-Si:Al). The controlled (partial) removal of Al nanowires in a selective etching process yielded nanoporous a-Si media with a variable effective surface area. Different spectroscopy techniques, such as X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), UV-Vis spectrophotometry and photoluminescence (PL), have been combined to investigate the impact of such nanostructuring on optical absorption and emission properties. We also examine long-term exposure to air ambient and show that increasing level of surface oxidation determines the oxide defect-related nature of the dominant PL emission from the nanoporous structures. The role of bulk, nanosize and surface effects in optical properties has been separated and quantified, providing a better understanding of the potential of such nanoporous a-Si:Al structures for future device developments

Nanostructured materials offer unique electronic and optical properties compared to their bulk counterparts. The challenging part of the synthesis is to create a balance between the control of design, size limitations, up-scalability and contamination. In this work we show that self-organized Al nanowires in amorphous Si can be produced at room temperature by magnetron co-sputtering using two individual targets. Nanoporous Si, containing nanotunnels with dimensions within the quantum confinement regime, were then made by selective etching of Al. The material properties, film growth, and composition of the films were investigated for different compositions. In addition, the reflectance of the etched film has been measured.

Anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) is an optically transparent material with uniform hexagonal pores, which has widely been used as a template for nanowire growth. This study examines the potential of utilizing commercially available AAO to fabricate sub-10 nm ZnO nanowires by atomic layer deposition. The pore diameter of the AAO framework is reduced by controlled deposition of . Subsequently, ZnO is deposited and ZnO nanowires are obtained. The analysis of structural and optical properties shows that the nanowires are polycrystalline, and exhibit a pronounced near band edge emission. Photoluminescence (PL) measurements are performed to monitor the effect of additional coating with and ZnO, on the optical stability of the AAO. The measurements indicate that the PL is highly influenced by the adsorption and desorption of species from the ambient at the surface. ALD deposition of a thin layer reduces considerably the effect of ambient atmosphere. The layer of facilitates PL characterization of very thin ZnO nanowires.

This thesis presents a study of the nanostructured a-Si:Al consisting of aluminum nanowires with < 5 nm diameter surrounded by amorphous Si. The nanostructure is formed by self-assembly of the nanowires during co-sputtering of silicon and aluminium. The motivation of the work lies in the material properties that can arise when approaching this scale, which makes this material interesting for a broad range of applications. In the last decades, a large research effort has been made towards Si nanostructures and other nanomaterials to develop cheaper and more efficient solutions towards photovoltaic devices and use of silicon in optoelectronic applications. Also, materials consisting of vertically aligned pores with a narrow diameter, as can be achieved by removing the Al NWs from the nanostructured a-Si:Al, can serve as a template for nanowire fabrication useful for a many different applications. The nanostructured a-Si:Al has previously received little attention, and a large number of questions related to fabrication parameters and material properties are unanswered. In this work, we try to unravel some of the material properties and bring more understanding of how the material can move closer to future applications. As removal of the aluminum nanowires is an important step towards these applications, much focus has been on this. By combining the detailed knowledge on the nanoscale available through transmission electron microscopy with simpler, more macroscopic techniques such as UV-Vis spectroscopy, we have shown that the removal process can be monitored by measuring reflectance. Not only may the nanowires be removed by selective etching using acids such as HCl, diluted H2SO4, and H3PO4, but the time it takes and the development on reflectance during etching can provide information on the quality of the wires and the aluminum gradient throughout the film. We hope that these results will aid other researchers in reproducing this unique nanostructured material, as it allows for process control on the nanoscale without the need for characterization by advanced electron microscopy. By combining a variety of characterization methods such as X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, photoluminescence spectroscopy, and ellipsometric porosimetry we have found that removal of the aluminum nanowires results in a partly oxidized nanoporous a-Si with porosity of 20 - 25 % and peak emission centring at 1.6 eV. Storage in air increases the level of oxidation and changes the emission characteristics. Therefore, a necessary step towards device fabrications may be to coat the nanoporous a-Si with a protective layer. The applicability of atomic layer deposition as a method for this has been proved promising from our experiments on its coating capabilities on narrow diameter anodic alumina.
