Journal ArticleDOI
21 % (one sun, air mass zero) 4 cm2 GaAs space solar cells
TL;DR: In this paper, the AlGaAs−GaAs heteroface structures have been grown in both the p•n and n•p configurations, and they have been characterized by a short-circuit current density of 32.3 mA/cm2, an open circuit voltage of 1.05 V, and a fill factor of 0.84, resulting in a conversion efficiency of 21.1%.
Journal ArticleDOI
The crystallographic connection of MOCVD-grown monolithic cascade subcells via transparent graded layers
TL;DR: In this article, a double mismatch technique was used to grow a monolithic cascade solar cell, where changes of lattice constant occur not only between the substrate and lower cell, but also between the lower and upper cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
Magnesium doping of efficient GaAs and Ga(0.75)In(0.25)As solar cells grown by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition
TL;DR: Magnesium has been substituted for zinc in GaAs and Ga(0.75)In( 0.25)As solar cells grown by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reproducible integration of multijunction cascade cell components
TL;DR: In this article, two-junction monolithic cascade solar cells were grown by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) in two-terminal and threeterminal configurations.
