Problems solved by technology

However, if ITO or AZO wants to achieve a good conductive effect, it needs a certain thickness, which will greatly reduce the transmittance of sunlight
In addition, ITO or AZO exhibits high absorption and strong reflection in the near-infrared region, which further limits its full use of sunlight.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of solar cells, in particular to a gallium arsenide solar cell and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] In recent years, my country's solar cell technology has developed rapidly. Gallium arsenide solar cells have the advantages of high conversion efficiency and excellent reliability, and are widely used in space vehicles, such as navigation satellites, communication satellites, space stations, and space probes. In the commonly used gallium arsenide solar cell, after the epitaxial structure is produced on the substrate, the upper and lower electrodes are made, and then the upper surface of the solar cell is coated with an anti-reflection film. The upper electrode is composed of two to three main grid lines and multiple thin grid lines. Sunlight shines into the solar cell from the gap between the grid lines, and the generated current flows out through the grid lines. In order to ensure...
