Abstract

Using well-practiced AFORS-HET software, thin film a-Si:H Bifacial Solar Cells (BFSCs) has been investigated and simulated. This study aims to simulate performances of a-Si:H BFSCs with structure of Glass/TCO/(n)a-Si:H/(i)a-Si:H/(p)a-Si:H/TCO/Glass. The results show that the optimized band gap for each layers are 2.0 eV (n-type), 1.7 eV (i-type) and 2.0 eV (p-type), respectively. The final simulation shows that there are significantly increased of VOC, JSC, FF, and Eff for both side of a-Si:H BFSCs. Finally, the maximum efficiency obtained is 7.79% for the front side and 5.68% for the rear side, respectively.
