ABSTRACT = {This paper proposes a comparative study between two sub-micrometric multi-layered 
photovoltaic cells, based on A<sub>II</sub>–B<sub>VI</sub> compounds, using different structures for the holes 
transport and collection electrode. Using the modified form of the Shockley equation, the 
diode factor, <i>n</i>, the reverse saturation current, <i>I</i><sub>0</sub>, and the series <i>R</i><sub>s</sub> and shunt <i>R</i><sub>sh</sub> resistances were evaluated and their effect on the photovoltaic cells performances were 
discussed. The photovoltaic performances were analysed by current-voltage characteristics 
at illumination in standard AM 1.5 conditions, and the specific parameters were 
determined.},
