Abstract

In this work, we report a detailed scheme of computational optimization of solar cell structures and parameters using PC1D and AFORS-HET codes. Each parameter’s influence on the properties of the components of heterojunction silicon-based solar cells (HIT) has been thoroughly examined. The proposed approach follows a stringent sequence of steps to optimize various parameters of the studied HITs. Furthermore, we have revealed the effects of the metal-semiconductor contact, and a model of a photocell with an ohmic contact and a Schottky contact has been simulated. The optimal model of HIT for available materials has been proposed and fabricated based on the results of these simulations. A comparison of predicted and measured performance unequivocally demonstrates the efficiency of the proposed scheme in developing silicon-based HITs, providing reassurance about its practical application.
