Optimization of Bonded III-V on Si Multi-Junction Solar Cells
Abstract
In this work, a high efficiency III-V on Si 3-junction solar cell achieved through intermediate metal connection and areal current matching is presented. The cell has an efficiency of 25.8% under 1 sun AM 1.5G. Factors that are important to the further improvement of the cell performance are discussed. By advanced optical coupling methods, the reflection loss at the bonding interface can be reduced to less than 5%. Shadowing loss can be reduced …
