ABSTRACT

The performance of solar cells depends on their monochromatic photon-to-current efficiency. In this study a model of the monochromatic photon-to-current efficiency (MPCE) was develop following the relation: MPCE = Jsc x Voc x FF / Pi, using matlab. At the end the mode of operation of the model was explained. The aim of this research is to promote the use of matlab in scientific study.

Keywords: Monochromatic, Photon, Current, Efficiency, Solar cells
