Abstract :
We examine the flow of current, parallel to the front surface, in the conventional p-n junction and in the field induced junction (FIJ) solar cell. The influence of grid finger spacing and gate voltage (FIJ cell) are studied, and the I-V characteristics of the cells computed. An algorithm for the determination of the optimum finger spacing is demonstrated.
