초록

화석에너지의 고갈로 인한 대체 에너지 연구는 최근 수십 년 동안 계속 행해지고 있다. 원자력 에너지와 비교해서 낮은 전기발생 효율에도 불구하고, 환경친화적이며 태양이라는 영구성으로 태양에너지는 주목 받고 있다. 본 논문에서는 태양전지의 효율에 가장 영향을 미치는 인자로 햇빛 입사각의 변화와 Top Connector 형상이라 가정하고 MATLAB 과 MathCAD 를 이용하여 모사하였다. 실험모사 결과 상용화 제품인 500um 선폭, 5um 높이 Top Connector 형상과 비교하여, 최고 10%의 태양전지 효율증가는 Top Connector 후막 두께가 25~50 um, 선폭 두께가 50~100um 영역에서 찾을 수 있었다. 10 만 cps 의 점도를 갖는 은페이스를 500um 의 MDDW (Micro-Dispensing Deposition Writing) 직접분사 노즐을 이용하여 성공적으로 25 um 후막을 형성하였다.

Studies on alternative energy have been carried out for many decades because of the accelerated exhaustion of fuel. While the efficacy of solar cells is still low in comparison with that of nuclear power, solar cells have been highlighted as potential sources of alternative energy because they are environmentally friendly and have a source of unlimited energy, namely, the sun. In this study, the optimum efficiency of solar cells was simulated as a function of the incident angle of sunlight and the geometric shapes of patterns using MATLAB and MathCAD software. The foremost efficiency of the solar cell was found to be 1.10 when the thickness and width of the patterns were in the range 25-$50{\mu}m$ and 50-$100{\mu}m$, respectively. To achieve the 25 um thick layer, 100,000 cps silver paste and 500 um orifice tip has been successfully implemented with Micro-Dispensing Deposition Writing.
