  ABSTRACT: In order to improve the efficiency of solar cells based on cubic silicon carbide (3C-SiC), one heterojunction solar cell and two tandem structures were simulated under AM1.5 illumination using SCAPS software. The cells’ performances were studied according to the thickness of the silicon carbide layers. Simulation results allowed to achieve an efficiency of 22.03% with a tandem junction structure using an optimal thickness of 3C-SiC layer.
