Abstract

The one-dimensional software known as solar cell capacitance simulator, commonly called as SCAPS-1D, has been used to study the transition metal dichalcogenide WS2/CdS/ZnO:Al solar cell with WS2 as the absorber layer material. Variations in thickness, ambient temperature, density of defects, and defect charge states have been used to study the photovoltaic performance parameters. So as to achieve increased efficiency, it was shown that the defect concentration in the light absorbing layer needs to be decreased to the lowest achievable values. Additionally, it has been found that the characteristics showing the performance of the solar cells are significantly influenced by the charge type of the defects.

基于 WS2 的过渡金属二卤化物太阳能电池的光伏性能模拟研究
摘要 使用太阳能电池电容模拟器(俗称 SCAPS-1D)一维软件研究了以 WS2 为吸收层材料的过渡金属二卤化物 WS2/CdS/ZnO:Al 太阳能电池。利用厚度、环境温度、缺陷密度和缺陷电荷状态的变化来研究光伏性能参数。结果表明,为了提高效率,需要将光吸收层中的缺陷浓度降至可达到的最低值。此外,研究还发现,显示太阳能电池性能的特征受到缺陷电荷类型的显著影响。
