Quantum tunneling model of a p-n junction in Silvaco

The focus of this research is to accurately model the tunnel junction interconnect within a multi-junction photovoltaic cell. A physically based 2-D model was created in Silvaco Inc.'s ATLAS© software to model the quantum tunneling effect that is realized within a multi-junction cell. The tun...
