Comparative Study of Experimental and Theoretical Model of Highly-efficient GaInP/Si Tandem Solar Cells

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Si based tandem solar cells speak to a contrasting option to conventional compound III-V multi-junction cells as a promising approach to accomplish high efficiencies. In this paper, we compare between an experimental model of a novel 4-terminal tandem cell design with a back-junction back-contacted (BJBC) c-Si and a theoretical model (proposed in this work) of a new structure of tandem solar cell based on c-Si using Matlab code. The obtained results from the computation of the overall efficiency η, show that we can attain the same efficiency (η = 28%) compared to the experimental model, but with less cost. Moreover, the physics coherence problem is solved with our model.
