Abstract

A concentrator solar cell is designed without a front contact collact collection grid. Its p‐Al~x~Ga~1–x~As‐p‐GaAs‐n‐GaAs epitaxial structure on a p‐GaAs substrate allows for collection of the carriers generated in the p region through the substrate while carriers generated in the n region are collected through an edge ring contact.

Although cell efficiency depends on specific cell design, it has been found that such a device may work efficiently at over 100 sun incident radiation levels.
