چکیده مقاله :
در سال های اخیر، مشکلات زیست محیطی در مقیاس جهانی به صورت جدی افزایش پیدا کرده است. برای غلبه بر این مشکلات سلول های خورشیدی به عنوان یک منبع انرژی پاک و عاری از آلودگی، اهمیت پیدا کرده اند. با توجه به استفاده روزافزون از انرژی های تجدیدپذیر، استفاده از سلول های خورشیدی جهت تأمین انرژی رو به گسترش است. این سلول ها، نور خورشید را به طور مستقیم توسط اثر فتوولتائیک به الکتریسیته تبدیل می کنند. تحقیق و توسعه در مورد انرژی فتوولتائی، عموماً در دو زمینه کاهش هزینه ها و افزایش بازده صورت می گیرد. بازده سلول های خورشیدی لایه نازک را می توان با جفت کردن سلول های خورشیدی با نانوذرات پلاسمونیک1 به طور قابل توجهی افزایش داد. در این مقاله، از طریق شبیه سازی های دقیق، آثار مربوط به شکل و اندازه نانوذرات را در بهبود بازده سلول های خورشیدی مس_ایندیم_گالیم_سلنیوم2 (CIGS) مورد بررسی قرار گرفته و دو شکل متفاوت، شامل کره و استوانه مورد مطالعه قرار گرفته اند. نشان داده شد که نانوذرات استوانه ای نقره با قطر 50 نانومتر، ارتفاع 125 نانومتر و پریود آرایه 215 نانومتر بیشترین افزایش را در جذب اپتیکی و تولید جریان الکتریکی ایجاد نموده اند. نتیجه به دست آمده در این مقاله از طریق آنالیز اپتیکی و الکتریکی و همچنین مطالعه ی تصویر میدان نزدیک حاصل شده است.
Recently, environmental problems on a global scale has been increased seriously. To overcome these problems, Solar cells is important as an energy source and free from contamination. Due to the increasing use of renewables, the use of solar cells for obtaining energy is growing. The cells convert directly sunlight into electricity by the photovoltaic. Photovoltaic energy research and development is generally done in two areas: cost reduction and increasing efficiency. The efficiency of thin film solar cells canbe increased considerably by coupling the solarcells with plasmonic nanoparticles (NPs). this study investigates, through meticuloussimulations, the effects of plasmonic nanoparticle shapes and size on theimprovement of the energy conversion efficiency of CIGS solar cells. Two different shapes including spheres and cylinders were analyzed in this study.It was revealed that the cylindrical Agnanoparticles, of diameter 50 nm, height 125 nm place on an array with period 215 nm exhibited the most substantialenhancement in the optical absorption and electrical currentgeneration. The conclusion attained in this paper has been made throughoptical and electricalanalysis as well as near field imaging studies.
