Abstract
This paper was carried about thermal analysis for high efficiency point contact solar cell. Therefore, we carried about 2-D device and process simulator according to design and process parameters. As a result of simulations, power transfer efficiency have decreased more increasing temperature. Especially, power transfer efficiency of room temperature have been showed 25%. The other hand, power transfer efficiency of 350 K kalvin temperature have been showed 20%. Therefore, we will considered design with thermal dissipation of device.
