    Effect Of A Buffer Layer On The Performance Of Thin-film Cu(in,ga)se2 Solar Cells
    (Oum-El-Bouaghi University, 2014) Mostefaoui, M.; Mazari, H.; Khelifi, S.; Dabou, R.
    opper indium gallium diselenide (CuIn1-xGaxSe2 or CIGSe) solar cells has been considered to be one of the most promising thin-film solar cells and is important for terrestrial applications because of their high efficiency, long-term stable performance and potential for low-cost production. In this work, the CIGS heterojunction solar cell has been numerically simulated using SCAPS-1D tool. We study the influence of a buffer layer on the performance of the CIGSe solar cells. Quantum efficiency, Jsc ,Voc and efficiency has been calculated in different buffer layer materials (CdS, ZnS, ZnSe, InS).The solar cell optimized shows an efficiency of > 18% under the AM1.5G spectrum and one sun.
