| Research Abstract |
Sun shine is one of the most important renewable energies. We have grown semiconductors which has an intermediate band gap to increase the efficiency of solar cell. We have shown that the intermediate band gap semiconductors can absorb photons having less energy than band gap and can generate current. The practical solar cells were made and investigated their properties.
