Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a solar cell and a manufacturing method thereof, in particular to a graphene / gallium arsenide solar cell regulated by an electric field and a preparation method thereof, belonging to the technical field of solar cells. Background technique [0002] As a kind of renewable green energy, solar cells are playing a key role in the sustainable development of human beings. In Germany, where photovoltaic power generation was developed earlier, more than 50% of its power generation comes from photovoltaic power generation. In 2013, China's newly installed photovoltaic capacity also reached 12GW, an increase of more than 200% compared with 2012. Among all photovoltaic power generation technologies, silicon-based solar cells, especially crystalline silicon solar cells, account for about 90% of the market. The purification of silicon materials, the complex process of silicon solar cells and the resulting environmental pollution have also ...
