- Title
Analysis of a-Si:H/SiGe heterostructure solar cell.

- Abstract
In this paper we present the results of the numerical simulation using wx-AMPS1D software of a solar cell based on hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si: H / c-SiGe), the top layer has the largest band gap, while the bottom layer has the smallest bandgap. This design allows less energetic photons to pass through the upper layer(s) and be absorbed by the layer below, which increases the overall efficiency of the solar cell to obtain an efficiency high conversion rate. As the results, remarkable improvements on Voc, Jsc and FF have been achieved with the incorporation of n-c-SiGe layer, we achieved an efficiency of 11.93%.
