About this document
Intermediate Band Solar Cell Analysis by Amir Mehdi is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The document analyzes the theoretical performance of an intermediate band solar cell (IBSc) using InAs/GaAs quantum dots through numerical simulation and efficiency calculations. Simulation results show the formation of mini-bands within the band gap from the quantum dots. Detailed balance theory is used to estimate an efficiency of 56.3% for the IBSc by considering photon absorption and recombination rates between the valence band, intermediate bands, and conduction band.
