NUMERICAL SIMULATION OF THERMAL BEHAVIOR AND OPTIMIZATION OF a-Si/a-Si/C-Si/a-Si/A-Si HIT SOLAR CELL AT HIGH TEMPERATURES

Purpose. Silicon heterostructure solar cells, particularly Heterojunction with Intrinsic Thin layer (HIT) cells, are of recommended silicon cells in recent years that are simply fabricated at low processing temperature and have high optical and temperature stability and better efficiency than homoju...
