      Cells Through NiO Induced Doping.
PG  - 1190-3
AB  - We report a doping strategy, where nickel oxide (NiO) nanoparticle film coating 
      is employed for graphene/Si heterojunction solar cells to improve the power 
      conversion efficiency (PCE). NiO doping has been shown to improve the short 
      circuit current (J(SC)) by 12%, open circuit voltage (V(OC)) by 25% and fill 
      factor (FF) by 145% of the cells, in turn increasing the PCE from 1.37% to 4.91%. 
      Furthermore, NiO doped graphene/Si solar cells don't show any significant 
      performance degradation over 10 days revealing that NiO doping can be a promising 
      approach for practical applications of graphene in solar cells.
