A theoretical study of a polysilicon solar cell with a radial junction in static regime under monochromatic illumination is presented in this paper. The junction radial solar cell geometry is illustrated and described. The carriers’ diffusion equation is established and solved under quasi-neutral base assumption with boundaries conditions and Bessel equations. New analytical expressions of electrons and holes photocurrent density and quantum efficiency are found. The wavelength and structural parameters (base radius, base thickness and wavelength) influences on photocurrent density and quantum efficiency are carried out and examined.
