Abstract

In this work two solar cell types were fabricated. The first type is FTO/ CuO/ ZnO/ Al and the second type is FTO/ ZnO/ CuO/ Al. Six samples were prepared from each type. The efficiency for each type was obtained. It was found that the efficiency of FTO/ ZnO/ CuO/ Al is in the range ~0.6 × 10-3, while the efficiency of FTO/ CuO/ ZnO/ Al is in the range ~2 × 10-3. The difference may be attributed to the fact that FTO and CnO acts as p- type semiconductor, while ZnO act an n- type semiconductor. Thus the first type acts as pnp component thus have low efficiency, while the second type acts pnp component and have relatively high efficiency
