초록

Harvesting energy directly from sunlight using photovoltaic (PV) technology is well recognized as an essential component for the future global energy requirements. PV based devices are nowadays considered to be economically competitive on par with the other fossil fuels or renewable energy technologies. In addition, the large-scale production of these devices (as a sustainable energy source) could help us to meet a significant portion of our daily energy requirements. These devices were extensively studied since 1950s, when the first crystalline silicon solar cell (efficiency 6%) was developed at Bell Laboratories [1]. Over these years, solar cells have been made from many other semiconducting materials with various device configurations such as single-crystal, polycrystalline, and amorphous thin-film structures [2].
