Abstract

This paper proposes an efficient three-layered p-GaAs/p-CIGS/n-CdS (PPN) solar cell architecture simulated using SCAPS-1D. The work investigates thickness and carrier-density optimization for the GaAs-added device and reports improved photovoltaic performance, including maximum power conversion efficiency, open-circuit voltage, fill factor, and short-circuit current density.
