Problems solved by technology

In order to reduce the bottom leakage current of the laser-powered micro-GaAs battery, most of the methods used are to increase the thickness of each growth layer in the GaAs epitaxial structure, especially to increase the thickness of the buffer layer (up to 10 μm ~ 20 μm), and achieved a reduction in battery bottom leakage. However, due to the large thickness of the epitaxial layer of the laser-powered micro-GaAs battery made by this method (up to 18 μ ~ 28 μm), not only the epitaxial growth is complicated, the cost is high, and the difficulty of the post-production process of the battery is increased.

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for manufacturing a laser powered miniature GaAs battery, which comprises preparing a GaAs substrate. The method is characterized by comprising the steps of: after reversely growing an epitaxial layer on the substrate, manufacturing sub-batteries; manufacturing a lower electrode and an upper electrode on each sub-battery, welding the upper electrode of each sub-battery with the lower electrode of an adjacent battery through interconnected electrodes for forming a serial-connected battery body, and performing reflection reducing film evaporation and scratching on the surface of the battery body, thereby preparing the laser powered miniature GaAs battery. According to the method, through a reverse-grown P-N-N-P epitaxial structure which is formed by an epitaxial PN and NP on the GaAs substrate, a reversed bias voltage is formed, thereby performing a current cut-off function, settling a problem of bottom leakage current caused by physical isolation between the sub-batteries and effectively reducing leakage current at the bottom of the battery. Furthermore the thickness of the epitaxial layer is smaller than 9 mu m, thereby reducing difficulties of later-period processes such as corrosion and isolation, and effectively improving epitaxial growth quality.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of photoelectric conversion, in particular to a method for manufacturing a laser-powered micro-GaAs battery. Background technique [0002] The laser-powered micro GaAs battery is a battery that uses laser light as the energy of the light source to generate electricity. Since laser is a single-wavelength light source with the best frequency response, and sunlight is a full spectrum, the current generated by a laser-powered micro-GaAs battery in the same unit area is far greater than that generated by a solar-powered battery, forming a stable large Current effect, and the laser-powered micro-GaAs battery also has the characteristics of small size, light weight, free from radio waves and electromagnetic interference, and safety; currently, laser-powered micro-GaAs batteries are mainly used as driving power for micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) , and has broad application prospects in various fields such a...
