Problems solved by technology

However, there is still a major problem in this system that the Ge battery covers a wider spectrum, and its short-circuit current can reach twice that of the other two-junction batteries. Due to the constraints of the three-junction batteries connected in series, the energy of the solar spectrum corresponding to the Ge battery is not captured. full conversion
However, GaInP / GaAs / InGaAs (~1.0eV) triple-junction cells often use an inverted growth method due to a 2.1% lattice mismatch between GaAs and InGaAs cells, and then use techniques such as substrate lift-off to increase the growth rate. and the difficulty and cost of the process

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of solar cells, in particular to a GaAs substrate-based InAlAs / InGaAsP / InGaAs positive triple-junction cascaded solar cell and a preparation method thereof. It has a theoretical conversion efficiency higher than 51%. Background technique [0002] In the field of III-V solar cells, multi-junction systems are usually used to achieve segmental absorption and utilization of the solar spectrum in order to obtain higher conversion efficiency. GaInP / GaAs / Ge and GaInP / GaAs / InGaAs (~1.0eV) triple-junction cells are the most researched and technically mature systems. The former currently achieves a maximum conversion efficiency of 32-33% under one sun. However, there is still a major problem in this system that the Ge battery covers a wider spectrum, and its short-circuit current can reach twice that of the other two-junction batteries. Due to the constraints of the three-junction batteries connected in series, the en...
