Development of New Materials and Manufacturing Processes
</aside>
We develop new thin films, interfaces and metallization processes for high-efficiency silicon photovoltaics, with an emphasis on scalable, low-cost deposition and printing methods that industry can adopt.

Metrology for Process Control and Quality Assurance in Manufacturing
</aside>
We develop measurement methods that tell cell and module manufacturers not only how well a device performs, but where and why it loses power, so that process problems can be found and fixed quickly.

Multiscale and Multimodal Metrology to Advance Degradation Science
</aside>
We study why photovoltaic modules and other electronic systems lose performance over time, linking what is seen at the scale of a power plant down to changes in chemistry and microstructure at the scale of a single metal contact.
