Efficiency Enhancement of GaAs Single-Junction Solar Cell by Nanotextured Window Layer

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
In order to improve efficiency of flexible III-V semiconductor multi-junction solar cells, it is important to enhance the current density for efficiency improvement and to attain an even efficiency of solar cells on a curved surface.

Design of a GaInP/GaAs tandem solar cell for maximum daily, monthly, and yearly energy output [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Solar concentrator cells are typically designed for maximum efficiency under the AM1.5d standard spectrum. While this methodology does allow for a direct comparison of cells produced by various laboratories, it does not guarantee maximum daily, monthly ...

External-quantum-efficiency enhancement in quantum-dot solar cells with a Fabry–Perot light-trapping structure

open access: yesHeliyon, 2023
In this work, we have experimentally investigated the impact of light trapping on the performance of InAs/GaAs quantum dot (QD) solar cells. To increase the amount of absorbed near-infrared photons, we fabricated a thin-film QD solar cell with a backside

Solar heating of GaAs nanowire solar cells

open access: yesOptics Express, 2015
We use a coupled thermal-optical approach to model the operating temperature rise in GaAs nanowire solar cells. We find that despite more highly concentrated light absorption and lower thermal conductivity, the overall temperature rise in a nanowire structure is no higher than in a planar structure.

Analysis of As/GaAs quantum dot solar cells using Suns-Voc measurements [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The performance of InAs/GaAs quantum dot solar cells was investigated up to an optical concentration of 500-suns. A high temperature spacer layer between successive layers of quantum dots was used to reduce the degradation in the open circuit voltage ...

Improved design of InGaP/GaAs//Si tandem solar cells

open access: yesEPJ Photovoltaics, 2021
Optimizing any tandem solar cells design before making them experimentally is an important way of reducing development costs. Hence, in this work, we have used a complete analytical model that includes the important effects in the depletion regions of ...

Advances in quantum dot intermediate band solar cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Several groups have reported on intermediate band solar cells (IBSC) fabricated with InAs/GaAs quantum dots (QD) which exhibit quantum efficiencies (QE) for sub-bandgap photon energies.
