The electrical properties of a solar cell with multiple nanoscale p-n transitions

In the present work a theoretical model of the formation of a spatial charge zone in a fundamentally new contact structure that consists of a semi-conducting base with nanoinclusions on its surface is developed. The character of the new contact type is found to be fully defined by the electric capac...

Description
Summary:In the present work a theoretical model of the formation of a spatial charge zone in a fundamentally new contact structure that consists of a semi-conducting base with nanoinclusions on its surface is developed. The character of the new contact type is found to be fully defined by the electric capacity of the nanoinclusion, C 0 . The difference between the properties of the new contact type in both structure and length and the analogous contact features that are typical for Schottki barriers, continuous p - n transitions, and heterotransitions is shown.
