Improving the performance of cadmium telluride solar cell (CdTe) with different buffer layers
In this paper, the performance of the buffer layer of Cadmium Telluride (CdTe) thin film solar cell was optimized using SCAPS software. At first, five different buffer layers including CdS, In2S3, ZnO, ZnSe and ZnS with variable thicknesses from 10 to 100 nm have been replaced in the structure of the solar cell and it has been observed. As the thickness of the buffer layer is increased, the eff...
متن کاملThe Effect of Doping and the Thickness of the Layers on CIGS Solar Cell Efficiency
The main problemswith the use of fossil fuels is the restrictions on their access and the detrimental consequences of their use which causes a threat to human health and quality of life. Consequently, the use of other energy sources has become necessary. Renewable Energy as a permanent and clean energy source is an answer to this problem. One such energy source includes photovoltaic solar energ...
متن کاملImproving solar cell efficiency using photonic band-gap materials
The potential of using photonic crystal structures for realizing highly efficient and reliable solar-cell devices is presented. We show that due their ability to modify the spectral and angular characteristics of thermal radiation, photonic crystals emerge as one of the leading candidates for frequencyand angular-selective radiating elements in thermophotovoltaic devices. We show that employing...

متن کاملSolar Cell Efficiency Measurements
The calibration and efficiency measurement procedures followed by the PV Devices and Measurements Branch at the Solar Energy Research Institute (SERI) are presented. The use of spectral irradiance measurements to calibrate reference cells used in these measurements has reduced the uncertainty in the calibration number to less than 1%. The use of the spectral mismatch index can reduce the errors...
