“…In this study, the InGaN‐based solar cell is composed of a three‐layered PPN InGaN structure as depicted in Figure 3 [48]. The uppermost layer comprises p‐In0.01GaN0.99 with a thickness of 0.1 μm, while the middle and bottom layers consist of p‐In0.5GaN0.5 and n‐In0.01GaN0.99 layers, each with a thickness of 1.0 μm.…”

Solar cells are increasingly being utilised for both energy harvesting and reception in free‐space optical (FSO) communication networks. The authors focus on the implementation of a mid‐band p‐In0.01Ga0.99 N/p‐In0.5Ga0.5 N/n‐In0.5Ga0.5 N (PPN) solar cell, boasting an impressive 26.36% conversion efficiency (under 1.5AM conditions) as a receiver within an indoor FSO communication network. Employing a solar cell with dimensions of 1 mm in length and width, the FSO system underwent simulation using Optisystm software, while the solar cell's behaviour was simulated using SCAPS‐1D. The received power from the solar cell was then compared to that of four commercially available avalanche photodiode (APD) receivers. Exploring incident wavelengths spanning 400–700 nm within the visible spectrum, across transmission distances of 5, 10, 15, and 20 m, the study presented current‐voltage (IV) and power‐voltage curves. Notably, the InGaN solar cell exhibited superior electrical power output compared to all commercial APDs. In conclusion, the findings underscore that augmenting received power has the potential to enhance FSO network quality and support extended transmission distances.

Recently, solar cells have been simultaneously used as energy harvester and receiver in free-space optical (FSO) communication networks. In this study, a mid-band p-In0.01Ga0.99N/p-In0.5Ga0.5N/n-In0.5Ga0.5N (PPN) solar cell that achieved a conversion efficiency of 26.36% (under 1.5 AM condition) was used as a receiver for an indoor FSO communication network. Considering that this solar cell had a length and width of 1 mm, the FSO system was simulated using Optisystm software. Meanwhile, the solar cell was simulated using SCAPS-1D software. The power received from the solar cell was compared with those of four commercially available avalanche photodiode (APD) receivers. Incident wavelength was varied in the visible region from 400 nm to 700 nm for transmission lengths of 5, 10, 15, and 20 m. The current–voltage and power–voltage curves were presented at different incident wavelengths and transmission distances. The InGaN solar cell provides more electrical power than all the commercial APDs. In conclusion, an increase in received power can improve the quality of an FSO network and support longer transmission length.
