1. 1 Improvement of Si solar sell performance by adding an anti- reflective coating (ARC) Your name goes here. Advisor: Dave Parent Co-Advisor: Lily He 14 May 2004 Advice: Do not read each slide, explain each slide to the audience. Please do not go over 15 slides! Do not change the background!

2. 2 Agenda Abstract Introduction –Why –Simple Theory –Back Ground information (Lit Review) Summary of Results Project (Experimental) Details Results Cost Analysis Conclusions

3. 3 Abstract Summarize the what, why and results of your project. Do not just cut and past your project paper’s abstract.

4. 4 Introduction You also explain why your project was worthwhile to study. This is where you describe the essential theory of your project. If you are going to use equations make them legible ( Insert...object.... MS equation) If you need more room use another slide.

5. 5 Previous Work This is were you talk about what others have done in the field that your work enhances, disproves, or used. 1987 Parent et al. introduces the XYZ concept. 1988 Parent et al. expands the XYZ concept. 1989 Freeman et al. refutes the XYZ concept and introduces the ABC concept. 1990 Choo et al. links the ABC and XYZ concepts. Note: Do not use a font size smaller than this. If you need more room, use another slide.

6. 6 Project Summary This is were you show how your work fits in with the previous work The key thing is to show what you did was an improvement over what has been done in the past.

7. 7 Project Details Explain all the details of your project. –Schematics should be legible, and not too busy. –If you did a set of experiments describe the conditions you did them under.

8. 8 Results Solar Cell with no ARC Coating Solar Cell with ARC Coating Solar Cell Data taken under AMI1.5 Conditions

9. 9 Cost Analysis

10. 10 Conclusions Go over again why your project was worthwhile to study. Summarize the main result –(We showed a 10% improvement in power conversion by adding an ARC coating). Make a prediction about the future.
