Abstract
With a computer program (GENPRO2D) based on incoherent multi-interface scattering, we are able to calculate the carrier generation profile ( light absorption profile) in an a-Si:H solar cell with several rough i nterfaces, provided that the light scattering at every interface is kn own and the spatial distribution of the incoming light flux is known. In this paper, we show for the first time the absorption profile in a- Si:H solar cells grown on rough TCO.
