    Abstract: In this article, a detailed study of the physical phenomena in the base of a silicon heterojunction solar cell (HIT) is elaborated. To carry out this work we have established a mathematical model which is in the form of a system of two continuity equations. The latter are subjected to physical conditions of nature to define our field of study. This... Show More
