研究目的
To investigate the enhancement of output performance of CZTSSe based solar cell through numerical simulation using SCAPS-1D software, focusing on the optimization of absorber and buffer layer thickness, and the effect of temperature on solar cell parameters.
研究成果
The study concluded that CdS is the best choice as a buffer layer for CZTSSe solar cells, with an optimized thickness of 100 nm. The highest efficiency obtained was 17.5%. High work function back contact is required for efficient charge carrier extraction. The performance of the solar cell improves with increased absorber layer thickness up to 4 μm, beyond which there is no significant change.
研究不足
The study is limited by the convergence failure in SCAPS-1D software at temperatures below 275 K. Additionally, the simulation results may not fully capture all real-world conditions and material behaviors.
