Abstract:
A detailed numerical model of the electronic properties of hydrogenated amorphous silicon has been developed and shown to be a useful tool for the analysis of the performance and optimization of the design of solar cells. The method of simulation involves solving Poissons's equation, and the electron and hole continuity equations, in conjunction with the transport equations for the electrons and holes. From the solutions of these equations we obtained the electrostatic potential, the electron and hole concentrations and the current densities. A set of realistic material parameters has been use

Abstract:
The fabrication of low cost, high efficiency solar cells is imperative in competing with existing energy technologies. Many research groups have explored using III-V materials and thin-film technologies to create high efficiency cells; however, the materials and manufacturing processes are very costly as compared to monocrystalline silicon (Si) solar cells. Since commercial Si solar cells typically have efficiencies in the range of 17-19%, techniques such as surface texturing, depositing a surface-passivating film, and creating multi-junction Si cells are used to improve the efficiency without

Abstract:
The main goal of this thesis was to simulate a solar cell with the symbolic manipulation tool Maple and discuss the strength and weaknesses of using Maple instead of the already known simulation program PC1D. This was done mainly by solving the three essential differential equations governing the current density and excess electron and hole densities in the solar cell. This could be done easily by using known simplifications especially the low injection assumption. However it was also a success without using this particular simplification but the solutions had to be achieved using a numerical

Abstract:
>Magister Scientiae - MSc<br>Amorphous silicon carbide (a-SiC) is a versatile material due to its interesting mechanical, chemical and optical properties that make it a candidate for application in solar cell technology. As a-SiC stoichiometry can be tuned over a large range, consequently is its bandgap. In this thesis, amorphous silicon carbide thin films for solar cells application have been deposited by means of the electron-beam physical vapour deposition (e-beam PVD) technique and have been isochronally annealed at varying temperatures. The structural and optical properties of the films h

Abstract:
The optical properties of metal nanoparticles have been investigated by simulation and experimental techniques. The aim of this investigation was to identify how to use metal nanoparticles to improve light-trapping in silicon solar cells. To do this we require nanoparticles that exhibit a high scattering efficiency and low absorption (i.e. high radiative efficiency) at near-infrared wavelengths. The simulation results identified Ag, Au, Cu and Al as potential candidates for use with silicon solar cells. The optical properties of Ag, Au and Cu nanoparticles are very similar above 700 nm.

Abstract:
As the efficiency potential for the industrial P-type Al-BSF silicon solar cell reaches its limit, new solar cell technologies are required to continue the pursuit of higher efficiency solar power at lower cost. It has been demonstrated in literature that among possible alternative solar cell structures, cells featuring a local BSF (LBSF) have demonstrated some of the highest efficiencies seen to date. Implementation of this technology in industry, however, has been limited due to the cost involved in implementing the photolithography procedures required. Recent advances in solar cell doping t
