In this paper it was carried out the numerical simulation of the main working parameters (light current-voltage curves, quantum yield spectral distributions) of SnS-based (SnS/SnS2/ITO, SnS/ZnS/ITO) solar cells (SCs) using the SCAPS-3102 simulation package. Using the basis input simulation parameters such as wide band gap Eg,, layers thicknesses d, electron affinities (, etc. there were estimated the next SCs characteristics: open-circuit voltages UOC, short-circuit current densities JSC, fill-factors FF and their efficiencies (. These data allows us to estimate the optimal constructive parameters of simulated SCs.
