Quantum well solar cells (QWSCs) are heterostructure devices intended to achieve higher efficiencies than conventional cells. This paper extends a previous model for QWSC current -voltage characteristics by revising the equations for the absorbed flux and by introducing expressions to calculate radi
In this paper, we discuss various aspects of the development of an inverted-grown A1GaAs/ GaAs cascade solar cell incorporating a patterned germanium tunnel junction. Topics include the development of the Alo.3vGao.6~s top cell, the growth of the GaAs bottom cell over the patterned germanium tunnel
A new theoretical model is presented for the performance of solar cells when light in the shape of a cone impinges on them. This is the case for concentration applications. The model is applied to 1000 sun concentrator p/n heteroface GaAs solar cells for the general purpose of a cone angle of betwee
