Abstract :
Both layers of the spectral converter with quantum dots and the light trapping structure with microlens and micro-hole arrays were prepared and evaluated experimentally to improve the efficiency of single crystal Si solar cell, resulting in the enhancement of short circuit current by more than 9.64%.
