摘要
This work presents the influence of geometrical parameters on the absorption efficiency (Q(abs)), external quantum efficiencies (EQEs), and short-circuit current (J(SC)), and the efficiency of InGaP cylindrical core-shell nanowire (NW) solar cells with a circular cross-section was investigated. Numerical results obtained through finite-difference time-domain simulation showed that NW diameters ranging from 100 to 200 nm affected the absorption efficiency of the solar cells and leading to higher short-circuit current densities. The results enhance the efficiency of the solar cell that can be controlled by tuning the physical dimensions of InGaP NWs.
