6 FAQs about [Refractive index of solar photovoltaic devices]

Do solar cells with high efficiency have refractive indices?

Here, we present refractive indices for all layers in Cu (In,Ga)Se 2 solar cells with high efficiency. The optical bandgap of Cu (In,Ga)Se 2 does not depend on the Cu content in the explored composition range, while the absorption coefficient value is primarily determined by the Cu content.
