摘要
Recently the concept of the inverted photovoltaic cell has become more attainable as a practical cell. This thin film cell consists of a p-n heterojunction in which the window layer is p-type and the absorber layer is n-type. The feasibility of a new inverted p-n heterojunction p-diamond/n-CdTe solar cell has been demonstrated. The non-optimized solar cell structure grown on semi-transparent p-diamond yielded an open circuit voltage of 0.23 V and a short circuit current of 1.54 mA/cm(2) when illuminated.
