Multi-Channel PWM Heater Control Chip in 0.18 μm High-Voltage CMOS for a Quantum Simulator by Christoph Ribisch, Michael Hofbauer, Kerstin Schneider-Hornstein, Alexander Kuttner, Martin Jungwirth, Horst Zimmermann

“…The chip also includes transimpedance amplifiers (TIAs) to monitor light powers inside the photonic integrated circuit (PIC) of the quantum simulator. 40 PWM channels and eight TIA channels are monolithically implemented in an application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) using a 0.18 μm high-voltage CMOS technology. The pulse duration for each channel can be set via a serial peripheral interface (SPI).…”

Approaches for reducing metallization-induced losses in industrial TOPCon solar cells by Mack Sebastian, Ourinson Daniel, Meßmer Marius, Teßmann Christopher, Krieg Katrin, Benick Jan, Huyeng Jonas D., Greulich Johannes, Wolf Andreas

“…Recently, laser-enhanced contact optimization has been introduced to decouple recombination and contact properties to some extent, which allows for high fill factors and high open circuit voltages, and which explains the growing interest from manufacturers in that technology. We elucidate on the need for improved hydrogenation of interfaces, which contradicts the wish to decrease firing temperatures for reduced carrier recombination at metal-semiconductor interfaces. …”
