Analyses of Interfaces in Wafer-Bonded Tandem Solar Cells by Aberration-Corrected STEM and EELS
High-quality III-V multi junction solar cells on Si can be fabricated by surface-activated wafer bonding at room temperature. In this way the formation of lattice-mismatch induced defects in the active solar cell layers can be reduced or completely avoided. In this approach, a 10 μm thin GaInP/GaAs dual junction solar cell is grown lattice-matched on GaAs and transferred to Si by direct wafer b...
متن کاملLow-Cost High-Efficiency Solar Cells
III-V compound multijunction solar cells enable ultrahigh efficiency performance in designs where subcells with high material quality and high internal quantum efficiency can be employed. However the optimal multijunction cell bandgap sequence cannot be achieved using lattice-matched compound semiconductor materials. Most current compound semiconductor solar cell design approaches are focused o...
متن کاملUltra-high-throughput Production of III-V/Si Wafer for Electronic and Photonic Applications
Si-based integrated circuits have been intensively developed over the past several decades through ultimate device scaling. However, the Si technology has reached the physical limitations of the scaling. These limitations have fuelled the search for alternative active materials (for transistors) and the introduction of optical interconnects (called "Si photonics"). A series of attempts to circu...
متن کاملEffect of Silicon Nanowire on Crystalline Silicon Solar Cell Characteristics
Nanowires (NWs) are recently used in several sensor or actuator devices to improve their ordered characteristics. Silicon nanowire (Si NW) is one of the most attractive one-dimensional nanostructures semiconductors because of its unique electrical and optical properties. In this paper, silicon nanowire (Si NW), is synthesized and characterized for application in photovoltaic device. Si NWs are ...
متن کاملElectrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy for Investigation of Different Losses in 4-cells Short Stack with Integrated Humidifier and Water Separator
Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) is a suitable and powerful diagnostic testing method for fuel cells (FCs) since it is non-destructive and provides useful information about FC performance and its components. In this study, for the first time, a 500W cascade type 4 cells stack with integrated humidifier, water separator and internal manifolds was designed, fabricated and tested. The ...
