Examination of 1D Solar Cell Model Limitations Using 3D SPICE Modeling: Preprint

    Research output: Contribution to conferencePaper

    Abstract

    To examine the limitations of one-dimensional (1D) solar cell modeling, 3D SPICE-based modeling is used to examine in detail the validity of the 1D assumptions as a function of sheet resistance for a model cell. The internal voltages and current densities produced by this modeling give additional insight into the differences between the 1D and 3D models.
