SCAPS modelling of ZnO/CdS/CdTe/CuO photovoltaic heterosystem

Abstract: The authors have developed a simple, cheap and reproducible technology for obtaining thin-film heterostructures based on CdTe with a given surface morphology during vacuum deposition, which contributes to their low cost [1, 2]. The critical dimensions (thicknesses) of individual layers of the heterostructure were substantiated, a simulation was performed and a wide range of optical properties was investigated [3]. It is shown that for the deposited CdS / CdTe heterostructure on glass it is possible to obtain a… Show more

“…Main characteristic photovoltaic (PV) parameters short-circuit current density ( J sc), open-circuit voltage V oc, fill factor (FF) and efficiency (PCE) under standard illumination (AM 1.5 G 1000 W/ , 300 K) were obtained and studied. Studies on the analysis of CdTe-based solar cells using SCAPS-1D as base simulation software have been previously published [ 12 , 13 ]. Given its widespread and accepted use, this computer simulation tool was employed in this research to numerically analyze AZO/CdTe thin film heterostructure performance.…”

“…CdTe semiconductor has proven to be a leading compound for manufacturing costeffective second-generation photovoltaic devices [1]. Cadmium telluride is having a direct band gap with an energy of ~1.45 eV and a high absorbance (above 10 5 cm -1 ) [2][3][4]. This makes it an excellent light-absorbing layer for solar cells.…”

“…It is organized in the form of a number of panels and is successfully used for complex modeling the optical and photoelectric properties of solar cells, for instance, ZnO/CdS/CdTe/CuO, Si-CdS-ZnO, CdS/CdTe etc. [2][3][4]. Additionally, it realistically simulates the electrical characteristics of heterojunction solar cells [5].…”
