In this paper, we study the effect of temperature on the Copper Indium Gallium Selenide (CIGS) thin film solar cells using the one dimensional solar cells simulator SCAPS-1D (Solar Cell Capacitance Simulator). The dependence of the CIGS solar cells characteristics on temperature was investigated from 25 degrees C to 70 degrees C at intervals of 5 degrees C. We observed an apparent degradation in the open-circuit voltage and conversion efficiency with an increase of temperature from 25 degrees C to 70 degrees C, accompanied with degradation in the maximum power of the cell from 18.55 mW/cm(2) (25 degrees C) to 14.941 mW/cm(2) (70 degrees C). By the using of the luminescent downshifting approach, the conversion efficiency of the CIGS solar cell was enhanced under Standard Test Conditions (STC) at 25 degrees C and in high ambient temperatures test conditions. The coefficient of the voltage variation to temperature Delta V-oc/Delta T was reduced from -2 to -1.8 (mV/degrees C). (C) 2015 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Ltd.
