My thesis work is based on simulation of solar cell in scaps 1D. In scaps I add a defect in individual layer. Is there any range of defect density value? I mean i need a reference paper in which the defect density range is discssed clearly.
Hi Fatema,
what material are you working with/ simulating? Typical defect densities in real-world solar cells can be anywhere between 10^10 cm-3 and 10^17 cm-3. But for specific references, it would be good what system and device you are looking at.
one defect per 1000 lines (LOC) is considered good. Such standard of defect density is called KLOC

Hi Afsana Rifat ,
Defect Density must lest than 0.5 but standard of defect density is 0.001% of crystal density.
