crystalline silicon solar cell engineering to improve fill factor, open circuit voltage, short circuit current and overall cell efficiency
design and optimization of a single crystalline silicon (c-si) solar cell is performed to achieve the maximum light conversion efficiency. various parameters such as doping concentration and thicknesses, and geometrical dimension of surface pyramids are studied. the inverted surface pyramid is used to increase the efficiency of the solar cell, and engineered oxide layer is used as the passivati...
متن کاملPolymer solar cells with enhanced open-circuit voltage and efficiency
Following the development of the bulk heterojunction1 structure, recent years have seen a dramatic improvement in the efficiency of polymer solar cells. Maximizing the open-circuit voltage in a low-bandgap polymer is one of the critical factors towards enabling high-efficiency solar cells. Study of the relation between open-circuit voltage and the energy levels of the donor/acceptor2 in bulk he...
متن کاملMonocrystalline CdTe solar cell with ultra-high open-circuit voltage and substantially increased efficiency
We report the demonstration of CdTe/MgxCd1-xTe double heterostructures (DHs) with a carrier lifetime of 3.6 μs and an interface recommendation velocity of 1.2 cm/s, comparable to or even better than the best values reported for GaAs/Al0.5Ga0.5As (18 cm/s) and GaAs/Ga0.5In0.5P (1.5 cm/s) DHs. Combined with a p-contact layer (8 nm a-SiCy:H + 4 nm a-Si:H), devices consisting of MgxCd1-xTe/CdTe/Mg0...
متن کاملOpen-Circuit Voltage Physics in Amorphous Silicon Solar Cells
We have performed computer calculations to explore effects of the p/i interface on the opencircuit voltage in a-Si:H based pin solar cells. The principal conclusions are that interface limitation can occur for values of VOC significantly below the built-in potential VBI of a cell, and that the effects can be understood in terms of thermionic emission of electrons from the intrinsic layer into t...
متن کاملAnalysis of Losses in Open Circuit Voltage for an 18-μm Silicon Solar Cell
An 18 μm thin crystalline silicon solar cell was demonstrated, and its best open circuit voltage is 642.3 mV. However, this value is far from the cell’s theoretical upper limit in an ideal case. This paper explores the open circuit voltage losses of the thin silicon solar cell, starting from the ideal case, through first principle calculation and experiments. The open circuit voltage losses com...
