This work shows two-dimensional numerical simulations aimed at providing indications for the development of optimized thin-film CIGS solar cells. The poly-crystalline nature of CIGS and the presence of defects and Cu-poor regions at the grain boundaries and at the CIGS surface are taken into account, together with the possible displacement of the p-n junction from the CdS/CIGS heterojunction.

Abstract
This work shows two-dimensional numerical simulations aimed at providing indications for the development of optimized thin-film CIGS solar cells. The poly-crystalline nature of CIGS and the presence of defects and Cu-poor regions at the grain boundaries and at the CIGS surface are taken into account, together with the possible displacement of the p-n junction from the CdS/CIGS heterojunction.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
