Design of Solar Energy Harvester for Smart Home Application

People are becoming more interested in the concept of creating a smart house without disrupting their power supply. This research study has designed and examined the construction of a solar cell by considering the varying intensities of light and different thickness of the p-n junction layer. Utilizing COMSOL Multiphysics for modeling. Analyses were done on the crucial factors electric field, electric potential, hole concentration, and electron concentration. The results of the simulation demonstrate that the junction thickness and intensity play a major role in the successful implementation of a solar cell. Hole and electron concentration is highly dependent on the light intensity falling on the air medium.
