An improved contribution to optimize Si and GaAs solar cell performances

In resent years a considerable effort (experience, numerical simulation and theoretical prediction models) has been devoted to the study of photovoltaic devices characterised by high efficiency and low cost. The present study comes in way to contribute in the optimisation of the performance of Si an...

The four principal parameters that influence the operation of a solar cell are emitter and base doping, junction depth and base thickness.

This study concerns the use of novel optimised values of electronic properties of GaAs and Si materials such as recombination velocity at surface (front and back).
