New approaches for current problems facing cascade solar cells in III-V compounds are addressed. Spinodal decomposition of metastable alloys such as A1GaAsSb resulting in the separation of low band gap phases is proposed as an interconnect between the two cells. A new superlattice structure based on

A high efficiency A1GaAs/Si tandem solar cell has been fabricated by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD). It consists of a A10.15Gao.s5As top cell and a Si bottom cell. The crystalline quality of the A10asGa0.s5As heteroepitaxial layer grown on Si has been improved using a high temperatu
Energy conversion efficiencies of 18% and 19.4% at 0.1 W cm -2 and 1 W cm-2 respectively were measured for a luminescent solar concentrator cell under an air mass one solar spectrum. This cell was designed for operation under illumination of 600 nm wavelength and 1 W cm -2. From these results and sp
