| Title | Simulation and modeling of crystalline silicon and perovskite solar cells |
| Summary | The most widely used solar cells for photovoltaic power generation is based on crystalline silicon semiconductor. Due to decades of innovation and material quality improvement, the silicon cells are approaching their theoretical power conversion efficiency limit. In order to increase the conversion efficiency further, perovskite solar cells with comparable efficiency has been under intense development recently. In this project, the student will use an ADEPT photovoltaic device simulator in nanohub.org to simulate these devices. The student will need to collect absorption coefficient data and use the dataset to simulate the current voltage characteristics and extract key photovoltaic device parameters such as the open circuit voltage, short circuit current and fill factor. The objective is to determine the conversion efficiency when both cells are operated side by side. |
