I need to know about what parameters can be taken for efficiency calculation in the solar cell by COMSOL simulation
any idea about how to take geometric parameters in the solar cell in comsol Naseer K. Kasim
Not only the geometric parameters must be optimized to increase the solar cells performances but we can decrease the barrier-high in different surfaces. Briefly, this decrease can increase the current collection in solar cells that in turn increases the efficency.
U can make control for the thickness of the solar cell to increase the surface area through surface mechanical surface processing
Dear Mr. Idris
If U want to decrease the barrier-high to increase the current, the open circuit voltage will decrease too and the produced power will be fixed according to the relation:
P= F.F Isc Voc
It depends on the model that you are building [ Optical, electrical or both]. Then first you need to define the cell parameters that depend on the geometry [absorption and reflection for example]. these parameters can be used to link the geometrical effect to the cell performance in an optimization study.
Dear Mayank,
Try to increase the thickness of each layer in the structure and take only which make a remarkable variation in the solar cell performance. In general, we will get an excellent variation of cell performances Vs absorber thickness.
