A Comprehensive Survey of Silicon Thin-film Solar Cell

This research project provides and investigates the use of a plasmonic grating structure as the back metal contact or the rear electrode of thin film solar cells as an efficient method for increasing the efficiency of thin film solar cells. The grating surface causes light to be diffracted, resulting in a longer path for the light to take when

Thin film GaAs solar cell

In the consideration of the absolute limit on efficiency, the fundamental sources of loss include blackbody radiation (the solar cell is typically assumed to have temperature T earth), radiative recombination (required by detailed balance), and the non-zero band gap of the material (which reduces the range of wavelengths that can be absorbed). When the AM1.5G spectrum is used
