Photovoltaic cells are semiconductor devices that can generate electrical energy based on energy of light that they absorb.They are also often called solar cells because their primary use is to generate electricity specifically from sunlight, but there are few applications where other light is used; for example, for power over fiber one usually uses laser light.

The study looked at the efficiency levels of four variations of solar cell architecture, including PERC (passivated emitter and rear contact) cells and other advanced high-efficiency technologies, comparing their outputs at different thickness levels.
For silicon solar cell structures with a high minority-carrier diffusion length one expects that J sc would decrease as the wafer becomes thinner due to a shorter optical path
There are two main aspects of the reported results that need to be discussed: (1) the quantum size effect in the MoS 2 layer and its role for adjusting energy levels to the configuration, which ensures the operation of photovoltaic cells based on the TiO 2 /MoS 2 junctions, and (2) the dependence of the efficiency (of conversion of solar to electric energy) of

A solar cell or photovoltaic cell is built of semiconductor material where the lowest lying band in a semiconductor, which is unoccupied, is known as the conduction band (CB), while the band where all valence electrons are found is known as the valence band (VB). The bandgap is the name for the space between these two bands where there are no energy
The influence of the thickness of silicon solar cells has been investigated using neighbouring multicrystalline silicon wafers with thickness ranging from 150 to 325 μm. For silicon solar cell structures with a high minority‐carrier diffusion length one expects that Jsc would decrease as the wafer becomes thinner due to a shorter optical
Optically thicker but physically thinner cells imply cheaper and faster fabrication, lightweight, and improved flexibility (Lin et al., 2014, Vicente et al., 2018). Besides, thickness reduction can lead to higher open-circuit voltages (and consequently efficiencies) due to lower bulk recombination (Polman et al., 2016).

At about one nanometer (billionth of a meter) in thickness, "It''s 20 to 50 times thinner than the thinnest solar cell that can be made today," Grossman adds. "You couldn''t make a solar cell any thinner." This slenderness is not only advantageous in shipping, but also in ease of mounting solar panels.
For silicon solar cell structures with a high minority-carrier diffusion length one expects that J sc would decrease as the wafer becomes thinner due to a shorter optical path length. It was found experimentally that J sc is nearly independent of the thickness of the solar cell, even when the minority-carrier diffusion length is about 300 μm.

The thickness of the Si films varied from 100 to 800 μm. The optical properties of the cell were studied at different thickness. A maximum achievable current density (MACD) generated by a planar solar cell, was measured for different values of the cell thickness which was performed by using photovoltaic (PV) optics method.
The thickness of the cell film was determined by using a thickness mentor ASTM D6132 of accuracy ±1 μm equal which 2% of reading and minimum individual layer thickness from 50 microns to 2 mm , , , , . Fig. 1. A structure of the prepared solar cell. All silicon thin films used in this study were deposited by (CVD).
The photocurrent increases with increasing the film thickness up to 700 μm but decreases again at the thickness 800 μm because the resistance decreases and the absorption increases. The thickness 700 μm was the best thickness for obtaining a high-efficiency of the solar cell.
The change in the thickness of silicon solar cell has a strong influence on their performance and efficiency. In this work Si solar cells of different thickness were prepared and studied carefully for measuring their electrical and optical constants as a function of thickness. 2. Experimental work
It was found that reducing the values of the cell thickness improves the open-circuit voltage (V OC) and the fill factor (FF) of the solar cell. The optical properties were measured for thin film Si (TF-Si) at different thickness by using the double beam UV-vis-NIR spectrophotometer in the wavelength range of 300–2000 nm.
The value of maximum I sc increases and hence the efficiency of the cell increases with increasing the thickness up to 700 μm. The Mater. Chem.
