Abstract

The performance of Au-p-n-Si Schottky barrier solar cell has been investigated theoretically following Li's work on GaAs. The behaviour of the barrier height as a function of carrier densities in then andp regions and thep layer thickness is investigated. The photovoltaic cell characteristics are worked out and conditions for maximum efficiency obtained.
