To understand the specific diode behavior of Cu(InGa)Se 2 /CdS solar cells, it is<br />

instructive to look at the effect of the Cu(InGa)Se 2 band gap, varied by changing x ≡<br />

Ga/(In + Ga), and temperature. Figures 13.16 and 13.17 show J –V and QE curves for<br />

3 devices with x = 0, 0.24, and 0.61, corresponding to E g = 1.02, 1.16, and 1.40 eV,<br />

respectively. V OC increases and the position of the long-wavelength QE edge shifts to<br />

greater energy as E g increases. Figure 13.18 shows the temperature dependence of V OC for<br />

these devices. In each case, as T → 0, V OC → E g /q. Thus, combining equations (13.7)
