Towards the CdS/SnSe solar cell optimization: Understanding the transport mechanisms
In this work, numerical simulation results on SnSe solar cells are presented. The influence of loss mechanisms such as radiative recombination, SnSe bulk recombination, and CdS/SnSe interface recombination on the device is studied in detail under and without the influence of resistances for the first time. In the first step, our model is validated by accurately reproducing the experimental available data. We found that non-radiative recombination originated by SnSe bulk defects in combination with high series resistances are dominant loss mechanisms, resulting in efficiency values lower than 2 %. In addition, the important role of the CdS/SnSe interface is also evidenced, since SnSe solar cells without bulk defects and resistances would not be able to overcome the efficiency barrier of 10 % because of the cliff-like band alignment. The role of each loss mechanism on SnSe solar cell performance was studied as a function of material thicknesses, carrier concentrations, bulk and interface defects, and resistances for device optimization. We demonstrated that conversion efficiency of 21.8 % with an open-circuit voltage, short-circuit current density, and fill factor values of 0.82 V, 31.6 mA/cm2, 84.6 %, respectively can be achieved in the optimized device under the standard conditions of AM 1.5G illumination and 300 K.

期刊介绍:
Results in Physics is an open access journal offering authors the opportunity to publish in all fundamental and interdisciplinary areas of physics, materials science, and applied physics. Papers of a theoretical, computational, and experimental nature are all welcome. Results in Physics accepts papers that are scientifically sound, technically correct and provide valuable new knowledge to the physics community. Topics such as three-dimensional flow and magnetohydrodynamics are not within the scope of Results in Physics.
Results in Physics welcomes three types of papers:
1. Full research papers
2. Microarticles: very short papers, no longer than two pages. They may consist of a single, but well-described piece of information, such as:
- Data and/or a plot plus a description
- Description of a new method or instrumentation
- Negative results
- Concept or design study
3. Letters to the Editor: Letters discussing a recent article published in Results in Physics are welcome. These are objective, constructive, or educational critiques of papers published in Results in Physics. Accepted letters will be sent to the author of the original paper for a response. Each letter and response is published together. Letters should be received within 8 weeks of the article''s publication. They should not exceed 750 words of text and 10 references.
