Design of ARC less InGaP/GaAs DJ solar cell with high efficiency
In this work, we used the Atlas Tcad Silvaco software to investigate the effect of adding an additional BSF layer on the performance of InGap / GaAs dual junction solar cells with a hetero tunnel Al0.7Ga0.3As-In0.49Ga0.51P junction. These analyzes indicate that, the addition of a BSF layer to the bottom cell the increase in the thickness of the BSF top cell would reduce the recombination and in...
متن کاملPrinting-based assembly of quadruple-junction four-terminal microscale solar cells and their use in high-efficiency modules.
Expenses associated with shipping, installation, land, regulatory compliance and on-going maintenance and operations of utility-scale photovoltaics can be significantly reduced by increasing the power conversion efficiency of solar modules through improved materials, device designs and strategies for light management. Single-junction cells have performance constraints defined by their Shockley-...
متن کاملModelling of High Quantum Efficiency Avalanche Photodiode
A model of a low noise high quantum efficiency n+np Germanium Photodiode utilizing ion implantation technique and subsequent drive-in diffusion in the n layer is presented. Numerical analysis is used to study the influence of junction depth and bulk concentration on the electric field profile and quantum efficiency. The performance of the device is theoretically treated especially at the wave-l...
متن کاملIntermediate band solar cell with extreme broadband spectrum quantum efficiency.
We report, for the first time, about an intermediate band solar cell implemented with InAs/AlGaAs quantum dots whose photoresponse expands from 250 to ∼6000 nm. To our knowledge, this is the broadest quantum efficiency reported to date for a solar cell and demonstrates that the intermediate band solar cell is capable of producing photocurrent when illuminated with photons whose energy equals t...
متن کاملSolar Cell Efficiency Measurements
The calibration and efficiency measurement procedures followed by the PV Devices and Measurements Branch at the Solar Energy Research Institute (SERI) are presented. The use of spectral irradiance measurements to calibrate reference cells used in these measurements has reduced the uncertainty in the calibration number to less than 1%. The use of the spectral mismatch index can reduce the errors...
