Solar cells are the most attractive source to harness solar energy; it is not only has high efficiency, but also protect our environment from pollution and producing zero greenhouse effect. There have been numerous studies on cadmium telluride (CdTe) compound in solar cell research as studies shows that CdTe can provide a good efficiency and yet cost effective. This paper presents a simple study investigating cadmium telluride solar cells structure by using MATLAB software. This study is aimed to investigate the parameters such as drift component, diffusion component, thickness also to analyse the efficiency of the cadmium telluride layer. The studies conclude that in order to achieve an efficiency of 28-30%, the thickness of the CdTe layer, the uncompensated acceptor concentration and carrier lifetime should be ≥12μm, ≥1016cm-3 and ≥ 10-11s respectively. 2012-04-22T01:31:06Z 2012-04-22T01:31:06Z 2010-12-13 Working Paper p. 392-396 978-1-4244-8648-9 http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=5704029 http://hdl.handle.net/123456789/18883 en Proceedings of the IEEE Student Conference on Research and Development - Engineering: Innovation and Beyond (SCOReD) 2010 Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE)
