Predictive Analytics Of Cigs Solar Cell Using A Combinational Gra-Mlr-Ga Model

Thin-film Copper Indium Gallium Selenide (CIGS) solar cell is identified to be one of the promising structures to replace conventional silicon-based solar cell due to its lower cost and reduced thickness. Nevertheless, the impact of layer thickness and doping concentration of a window layer - Zinc o...
