Design and Performance Analysis of GaAs-Based P-i-N Photovoltaic Using AlGaAs as Window Layer

In this study, the simulation is based on the P-i-N solar Photovoltaic. P-i-N-based reference solar cell founded on GaAs for enhanced performance was utilized with AlGaAs as the window layer. Different layers have been optimized according to the best performance. Impact of using Anti Reflecting coating has also been studied. It has been found that with Anti Reflecting coating, P-i-N solar cells efficiency has increased significantly. A horizontal band section has been placed in the intrinsic substance of the P-i-N model and because of this, high η (efficiency) is build up with high short circuit current (Isc); high open-circuit voltage (Voc) as extra short circuit current density (Jsc) comes from the intrinsic section. 40.9133% is the highest η in the research.
