3-D Modeling of Triple Junction Solar Cells on 2-D Gratings with Optimized Intermediate and Back Reflectors

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

Superstrate thin-film silicon triple-junction solar cells on 2-D gratings were optimized using opto-electrical modeling. Tuning the thickness of intermediate and back reflectors and the band gap of the middle cell resulted in 17% initial efficiency.
