Optically enhanced amorphous silicon solar cells

Optically enhanced amorphous silicon solar cells

We describe the first application of optical enhancement to thin-film (∼0.75 μm thick) amorphous silicon solar cells and define cell geometries which maximize enhancement effects. We observed that due to the improved infrared absorption the external AM1 short circuit current increases by 3.0 mA/cm2...

Zusammenfassung:We describe the first application of optical enhancement to thin-film (∼0.75 μm thick) amorphous silicon solar cells and define cell geometries which maximize enhancement effects. We observed that due to the improved infrared absorption the external AM1 short circuit current increases by 3.0 mA/cm2 in cells constructed in accordance with the principles of optical enhancement.
