  • Abstract
    In this work we did the back passivation of CdTe using silicon di oxide and studied its effect on CdTe based solar cells. The performance of solar cell was improved by doing the silicon di oxide passivation and this effect was seen on dark I-V, light J-V and C-V characteristics. We also did the annealing of solar cell and optimized the temperature which further improves the performance of solar cell.
