Example Embodiment

[0019] In order to make the above objectives, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, the following is specifically described in detail in conjunction with specific embodiments of the present invention as follows:

[0020] 1) Cell growth before bonding

[0021] As shown in FIG. 1, it is a schematic diagram of the battery structure before and after the bonding of the GaInP / GaAs / solar cell and the InGaAsP / InGaAs solar cell used in the present invention. It can be clearly seen from the figure that the double-junction battery first grows GaAs battery on GaAs substrate, and then grows lattice-matched GaInP battery; grows lattice-matched InGaAs battery on InP substrate, and then grows lattice Matched InGaAsP battery. Because they are all grown by lattice matching, it will not increase the difficulty of material growth due to lattice mismatch, and will not cause dislocations due to the stress release of the epitaxial layer, which will affect ...

Abstract

The invention discloses a manufacturing method of a GaInP/GaAs/InGaAsP/InGaAs four-junction solar battery. By utilizing a wafer bonding method, the GaInP/GaAs/InGaAsP/InGaAs four-junction solar battery is integrated by a GaInP/GaAs double-junction solar battery growing based on a GaAs substrate and a InGaAsP/InGaAs double-junction solar battery growing based on an InP substrate; by utilizing the InP as a supporting substrate, the four-junction solar battery with respective band gap energies of 1.9/1.4/1.05/0.72 eV is realized, sunlight full spectral absorption and energy conversion are realized to a greater degree, and 32.8 percent of efficiency is realized in irradiation of AM1.5G and under the sun. Based on the development of two kinds of double-junction batteries, the bonded four-junction solar battery reduces the shortages of high cost caused by utilizing a plurality of different substrates in a mechanical cascade solar battery system and complex optical system and optical loss in an optical integrated battery, and effectively solves the problem of lattice mismatching of growing a uniwafer four-junction cascade semiconductor solar battery material. The high voltage and low current outputs are realized and the resistance consumption in a high concentrator battery is reduced.
