Table 1

The fundamental (Eg), direct (, and Γ-point ( gap energies, as well as the high-frequency dielectric constant (ε); we present the average dielectric constant since the anisotropy is rather small. The maximum solar conversion efficiency (ηmax) is presented for two film thicknesses (d), and it includes both radiative and Auger recombinations (values in parenthesis are results when the Auger effect is neglected).
