title = "Photovoltaic Characteristics of The a-C/a-C:B Homojunction from Palmyra Sugar with Nano-Spray Method",
abstract = "The a-C/a-C:B homojunction of palmyra sugar has been successfully fabricated using the nano-spray method. Palmyra sugar was chosen as the main source of carbon because it is cheap,renewable, abundant and available around the clock. Nano-spray is used as a deposition method on glass ITO substrates because of several advantages, namely cheap, easy, portable, low power consumption, the deposited layer is more evenly distributed and thinner. Junction samples when in bright conditions [emitted light] showed an increase in current and voltage values compared to dark conditions. Testing the current and voltage of the junction sample shows the characteristics of a rectifier diode. This indicates that the sample is a junction of two semiconductor of different types.Sample is i-type and p-type. This results strengthen the test results using Syn. PES that the doping process with boron succeeded in changing the conduction type from a-C from intrinsic type to p-type.Testing the junction sample when irradiated with visible light using a lamp shows symptoms of the photovoltaic effect. Testing with direct exposure to sunlight under condition AM 1.5 (1000 watt/m2)showed increase in ISC and VOC. This indicates that the a-C/a-C:B amorphous carbon homojunction junction sample functions as a solar cell.",
