Abstract

Solar cells are a renewable energy source that rely on the sun’s light to generate electricity. Solar cell efficiency can be increased by manipulating the parameters of the factors considered. The simulations were conducted using the open-source PC1D software. Zinc oxide (ZnO) is the semiconductor material that was used to model the solar cell in this study. As a result of this study, output generated in the form of ISC, VOC, Pmax and IV curves. The simulation results indicate the optimal material thickness is 5 μm and optimal doping concentration is 1×1018 cm- 3. The simulation achieved a 16.55 % efficiency with Pmax value of 1.82 Watts by optimizing the manipulated parameter of thickness and doping concentration.
