A review of thin film solar cell technologies and challenges
In 1978, Wilson [6] used the MIS or Schottky diode structure (Fig. 3) instead of the p-i-n, which led to 4.8% efficiency.The Schottky barrier α-Si solar cell is constructed with a metal-to-N junction rather than a p-n semiconductor junction [6].Schottky barrier α-Si solar cells incorporate a thin, yet highly doped, p-type α-Si, between a Schottky barrier …
MODELING AND OPTIMIZATION OF THIN-FILM SOLAR …
We present a mathematical model for a thin-film solar thermoelectric cooling and power generation depending on current flow at the interface between two different materials. Based on the direction of the current flow, an amount of thermal energy is absorbed or dissipated to offset the disparity in thermal energy between the two key materials. The
