Abstract

Transparent solar cells have emerged as a promising frontier in renewable energy research, offering the dual functionality of generating electricity while maintaining. transparency. Five layers of InAs/InSb/AlGaAs/GaN/Si are incorporated into the proposed model structure which takes the properties of the source materials into consideration. Simulations of electromagnetic waves are used to evaluate optical and electrical properties. The cell is assumed to function at room temperature in the simulated settings. The I-V curve's fill factor (F.F.) of 0.6531 corresponds to a maximum conversion efficiency of 15.2655%, according to the data. Furthermore, at 530 nm, this combination and device configuration show a very good transparency of up to 60%.
