Influence of Defect States and Thickness of Interface Layer On High Efficiency of c-Si/a-Si:H Heterojunction Solar Cells With Higher Bandgap a-Si:H(p) Layer By Simulation
Abstract:This paper presents the influence of defect states and thickness of interface layer on high efficiency of c-Si/a-Si:H heterojunction solar cells with higher bandgap emitter a-Si:H(p) layer by AFORSHET simulation tool. At first, the performance of Ag/ZnO/a-Si:H(p)/ a-Si:H(i)/ c-Si(n)/ a-Si:H(i)/ a-Si:H(n)/Ag heterojunction solar cells was studied by altering the thickness of a-Si:H(p) and a-Si:H(i) layers. The best values of open circuit voltage (Voc) (764.8 mV), short circuit current density (Jsc) (43.15 mA/cm… Show more
